CREATING A CAMPAIGN
Learn How To Create Your First Campaign
Step 1: STARTING A CAMPAIGN
- Navigate to the "Campaigns" tab to view sent campaigns and drafts.
- Choose to duplicate a previous campaign or start a new one from scratch.
Step 2: CAMPAIGN SETUP
- Decide between a regular campaign or an A/B test campaign.
- Provide a campaign name, subject line, and reply-to address.
- For subject line personalization, use Campaign Monitor’s template tags to insert subscriber-specific information, such as first names.
Step 3: A/B TESTING
- Purpose: A/B testing allows you to test two versions of a subject line, the from name, or email content to learn what your audience responds to. This is done by sending two separate versions of an email to a random group of subscribers in your list. After a period of time, the email results are compared and a winning version is selected. The winning version is then automatically sent to the remainder of your subscribers.

- Editing Text: Click on text areas to modify content. Choose from a wide range of fonts, colors, sizes, and styles to match your brand's guidelines.
