Templates
The templates feature is used to create the emails for campaigns, auto reminders, and thank you emails for the various fundraising, event, and membership pages. The templates can be customized by adding images, text, and links to videos and pdf files. To learn about editing the email marketing templates and emails, see the video “Email Editor.” (password DV2017)
Campaigns
The campaign is where the contacts list comes together with the template. A campaign can be sent immediately or scheduled for a specific time and day. The video “Email Marketing Campaign” (password DV2017)will demonstrate all the features.
Auto Responders
Auto responders schedule a template to be sent to new email list subscribers. The email list categories are identified to receive the message and the template can be customized for a general welcome or specific categories. See the details in the video “Email Auto Responder.” (password DV2017)
