You can have a temporary auto-responder go out to new leads while you are closed for holidays.
IMPORTANT: These instructions are ONLY for clients who do not already have a live Default Procedure Marketing Campaign. If your Default campaign is already live we recommend that you use a blast campaign model similar to the one described in Set up an emergency alert to send quickly to everyone
First, go to Preferences> Communication Builder and create the email.
- Click the Add Email button
- Right underneath the Email Message title use For the traditional WYSIWYG Editor. Please Click Here.
- There are many FAQ articles available for creating content; click Support> Knowledge Base to see them. Just keep things simple and you’ll be fine.
Then go to Preferences> Campaign Builder, which is like an ‘envelope’ for your email message.
- Find and click the Default campaign under Procedure Marketing.
- Click Next until you get to the drag-and-drop screen.
- Click and drag the Email button into the white space. A pop-up will appear.
- Choose your message and timing (for example, you can send it one hour after a lead is posted).
- Click OK and click Save at the bottom of the page. You’ll be taken to the last step of the setup.
- On the left, click the green Activate button. You’ll see a message about it taking up to eight hours to query the database. Don’t worry about it.
- Go back to Preferences> Campaign Builder and be sure your Default campaign now has a green icon next to it and says Active.
When you return from holiday, be sure to deactivate your Default Procedure Marketing campaign to stop the message.
- Go to Preferences> Campaign Builder
- Find and click the Default campaign under Procedure Marketing.
- Click the orange Deactivate button
- Go back to Preferences> Campaign Builder and be sure your Default campaign now has a red icon next to it and says Pending
