Email 3- Check-in and Banner Images
The RescueGroups.org Email Marketing Service has been a part of your account for about a month, and we want to make sure that you’re getting familiar with the service. We hope you received our last email with our Getting Started tips. If you haven’t, you can find the steps for creating a campaign in our Email Marketing Campaigns guide. These steps walk you through how to add and edit a campaign, preview and send test messages, add contacts, set a schedule, and activate a campaign.
Once you start using our Email Marketing Service tool, you may find yourself needing to manage subscriptions. You can manage subscriptions by adding or removing subscribers and changing subscriber names and information. This is particularly useful in handling bounced emails and removal requests. Please see Manage Subscribers for more information.
Now that you are more familiar with our Email Marketing Service, we also recommend you take a look at your Email Marketing settings. This feature allows you to review information about your Email Marketing quotas. You can find this information in your Email Marketing settings by clicking Services > Settings & Options then the Email Marketing link.
Once on the Email Marketing Settings Page, you can see if you have set a banner image, as well as view your current email quota per month, the total number of emails your organization has sent in the current cycle, the number of emails remaining that could be sent in the current cycle, and the day your email quota resets. Please be aware that if you send the maximum quota of emails for the month, the service stops sending emails. It does not continue sending more emails, so you are never charged an overage fee. For even more details on Email Marketing Campaign Settings, including banner image information, please see our Email Marketing Campaign Settings article.
As a reminder, depending on what level of Email Marketing Service you selected, this may be a paid service. You can view a list of all your services, and possible cost(s) and due date(s) by going to the Services Tab > Account Administration > Your Services.
And of course, you can always create a support ticket for assistance at any time. We’ve got your back!
