The copy is perfect, the subject line irresistible. Now all that\u2019s left is waking up at 4 AM to send it so that your subscribers across the country see it first thing in the morning. Wait, what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course you don\u2019t want to wake up early just to send an email. With Direct Mail, you don\u2019t have to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scheduling your campaigns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can schedule your campaign to send at any date and time, even if Direct Mail is closed or your computer is turned off when that time arrives. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Click the send button in the toolbar<\/li><li>Click the \u201cSchedule\u201d popup menu and select \u201cSchedule for Later&#8221;<\/li><li>Choose the date and time you want your campaign sent<\/li><li>Click the Send button<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video height=\"720\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1280 \/ 720;\" width=\"1280\" controls muted src=\"https:\/\/directmailmac.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/schedule-send-2.mp4\" playsinline><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After you click Send, Direct Mail will queue up your campaign to send at the time you specified. If you switch over to the Report tab, you\u2019ll see your campaign waiting to send.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if I change my mind and want to cancel or reschedule?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>No problem. In the Reports tab, just click the \u201cCancel Delivery\u201d or \u201cReschedule Delivery\u201d buttons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if someone subscribes to or unsubscribes from my mailing list before the campaign is sent?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>If someone unsubscribes in between the time that you queue up the campaign and the delivery date, Direct Mail will automatically skip them when the campaign is sent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If someone new subscribes to your list in between the time that you queue up the campaign and the delivery date, they will not receive the campaign (but will still be added to your list for the next campaign). For this reason, it\u2019s best to not schedule campaigns <em>too<\/em> far in advance, especially if you are expecting a bunch of new subscribers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve spent all day perfecting your latest holiday email marketing campaign.
