Sending Your First Campaign

A beginner-friendly walkthrough to help you get your first campaign out the door on GroupList.io.

Step 1: Create Your Email List

Before you can send a campaign, you need somewhere to send it. Start by creating an email list:

  • Go to your dashboard
  • Click on "Lists" in the menu
  • Click "Create a new list" and enter your list name, default sender name, and sender email

You can import subscribers or add them manually to the list.

Step 2: Create a Campaign

Once your list is ready, it’s time to create your campaign:

  • Go to "Campaigns"
  • Click "Create a new campaign"
  • Choose your email list and give your campaign a name
  • Write your subject line and select your sender email

Step 3: Design the Email

Use our built-in editor to craft your message. You can:

  • Write a plain-text email
  • Use a saved template
  • Or copy and paste your custom HTML code

Don't forget to personalize your content with merge tags like [Name].

Step 4: Send or Schedule

After previewing and testing your campaign, you're ready to go:

  • Click "Send now" to launch immediately
  • Or schedule it for a future date and time

You’ll be able to track opens, clicks, and bounces from the dashboard.
