In Campaigns, users have the ability to easily create and send a one-off email newsletter to their leads/contacts. Keep in mind that you will be responsible for sending the newsletter on a reoccurring basis. You can use the Tasks applet to create tasks and make sure you are aware of when the newsletter will need to be created and sent. When sending these email campaigns, users have the ability to use standard KW templates, or they can create their own custom email templates.
The newsletter will be sent to a list of leads/contacts of your choosing. You have the ability to create lists of contacts/leads that you want to send targeted emails to. You can build these lists in Campaigns, while you are creating the email campaign, or you can create and manage these lists separately.
A one-off email newsletter can be scheduled up to 12 months ahead of time. Users have the ability to send these using their connected MailChimp account or Command Email.
