View Newsletters
About This Feature
Here you can view all of your newsletters, sort them by sending status, and access information about each one. From this page you can also access other tools, such as building and importing newsletters.
How To Use This Feature
Under "Newsletters" in the main menu, click "View". You'll see each of your newsletters displayed with their current status:
[+] Newsletter Status
Draft: an unsent newsletter still in edit mode. You can reopen drafts to make changes at any time.
Scheduled: once you have completed the sending process, your newsletter will register as scheduled; you cannot edit a scheduled newsletter. To edit, cancel the scheduled send, amend your newsletter and reschedule.
Processing: the system is preparing your newsletter for each email address in your campaign.
Processed: the individual emails have been prepared but not yet sent; in most circumstances, you can still make last minute edits to a newsletter that has been processed without delaying its scheduled send.
Sending: the newsletter remains in this state until all emails have either been delivered or have bounced. Reporting begins within 15 minutes of the start of sending.
Sent: every individual email has been accounted for; this could take several hours depending on bounces.
To the right of each newsletter is a row of icons. These allow the following actions: Information, Preview, Delete, and Copy.
To edit existing newsletters, click on the newsletter title. Only drafts should be edited. To create a similar newsletter, select copy and edit the new copy.
[+] Viewing Options
On the right side of the page is a list of Actions you can take. Under “Display”, the following options are listed: All, Draft, Sent, Scheduled, Archived, Autosaved. Clicking on any of these tabs will show you all newsletters in that category.
Best Uses
“View Newsletters” is a pretty handy section where you’ll be able to check on the status of email marketing newsletters you’re sending, determine whether they’ve sent or not, and make changes to newsletters that are still available for editing. You can also use this section to review your email marketing choices and strategies. For example, you might go through your past emails to compare subject links to open rates in the reports. Oh - and since it’s technology we’re working with here - be sure to note the “Autosaved” tab at the bottom - if your computer freezes in the middle of a masterpiece, check here before bemoaning your loss. (And next time, hit the save button anytime you like what you’ve got!)
