Getting started with Paubox Marketing: Create and Send Promotions

A Paubox subscription or trial subscription is required (don't have one? sign up here!)

In this section, we will cover creating a new promotion using the editor and sending it out

Create a promotion and send it

1) Navigate to Paubox Marketing > Promotions

2) Click the "New Promotion" link at the top right part of the page

3) Enter a Subject for your email in the field that says " Subject for your promotional email"

4) Each section is a block of content.  Click one of the icons at the bottom of the page (the options are Text, Image on the left / Text on the right, or Text on the left) to add a new content block.

To Add images to a content block. you must first upload an image file from your computer by navigating to the Images section in the far right column and click the + button there.

Use the Editor to compose your message.  Formatting options (for example, making text bold, underlined, or adding hyperlinks may be found in the toolbar above where you're composing the message).

To Save a content block, click the checkmark in the upper right corner of the block you're editing.

To Delete a content block, click the trash icon in the upper right corner of the block you're editing.

5) When you're finished editing your promotion, click the Save button at the bottom right.

You can Preview your promotion before sending it out by clicking the Preview link at the top right and you can send a test email to the address of your choice if you'd like to.

6) When you're ready to send your promotion, click the Send button at the bottom left.

7) Select the distribution list you want to send the promotion to.  You can enter additional recipients who aren't on a distribution list by entering their email addresses in the Additional recipient emails field

NOTE:  If you enter additional recipient emails, the Unsubscribe link will not appear at the bottom of the email to those recipients because they aren't currently one of your subscribers (contacts).

8) Click the Send button at the button right

Congratulations, you have now sent your first promotion using Paubox Marketing!
