Email Marketing Campaign Field Guide

Field Name Description Helpful Hint
Choose Groups

When creating a new campaign, Groups determine what subset of customers will receive the campaign.

If you select multiple groups and an owner falls into multiple groups, they will only receive the campaign once.

For a full breakdown of the available campaign groups, check out this article: Marketing Campaign Groups

For instructions on how to create a custom group for a campaign, check out this article: Custom Campaign Groups

Choose Reservations Optionally select a specific reservation type to target for the campaign. For example: Selecting the group Reservations in the Last 15 Days and selecting the Daycare reservation type will contact owners who have had daycare reservations in the last 15 days.
Choose Locations Select a specific location to target.  This is based on the owner's assigned home location on their profile.
Name This is the name of the campaign within your Gingr application and is not visible to customers. Be descriptive so that users can easily differentiate between campaigns.
Subject This is the title of the campaign that your customers will see as the subject line.  

 

Design the Campaign

In the Campaign Design section of the page, optionally choose a Template. Gingr delivers your application with 5 distinct email templates, however, you can create additional templates on your own.

You can use the designer tool to help build your email. The right side of the tool has 3 tabs: Content, Rows, and Settings. You will primarily be using the Content tab to design your email. To add content to your campaign, simply drag a type of content to the left side of the page until you see the "Drag it here" pop up.

To edit the contents of a Content block, simply click on that block on the left side of the tool and edit.

To add columns to your design, click on the Rows tab on the right, and drag your desired column layout to the left. Then, you can add a Content block within the column.
