After you create your campaign within the Inbound app, you may need to make edits. This article will explain what users may edit through the platform and the necessary steps to do so.

You will only be able to edit specific aspects of your campaign once it goes live in your dashboard. Currently, the Inbound application allows you to do the following:

How to Change the Campaign Name

  1. To change your campaign name, click on the Campaigns tab. From the list of active campaigns, click on the blue pencil icon on the right.

  2. A menu will appear with the field name Campaign Name. This is identical to the menu used when you first created the campaign. Update the text field with a name of your choosing.

  3. Click Continue at the top until you receive this confirmation screen:

    Click on one of the three available options shown above: Email notification, SMS notification, or both.

  4. The following steps will correspond to the option of your choosing. If you select an option with an email notification, you will now see a menu that looks identical to the email form we use in our Templates application.

    For this document, we will begin with email notifications.

Creating an Email Notification

The From field is the user whose name will display when the recipient receives the notification. You can select it from the dropdown menu.

The Subject field is the topic of your email. You may call this “New Lead from X Campaign,” for example.

The open text field is where you will enter the body of your message. There is no limit on the number of characters you can use for your email notifications.

Attachments have a cumulative maximum file size of 20MB. There is no limit on the number of files you can attach as long as they remain below the size limit.

Personalize gives you the ability to automatically inject information you have on file associated with the lead or the team member you are contacting. You can learn more about how to utilize personalization options using our help article found here.

Finally, you can utilize the Use Template option to quickly set up a notification message rather than creating one from scratch. Our Templates app allows you to create any number of SMS or email templates to optimize your workflow in situations like these. You can learn more about how to create templates using our help article found here.

Once your email notification is complete, you can test the message by entering an email in the bottom field and selecting Send Test. If you are ready, click Continue at the top of the page.

Creating an SMS Notification

The process of setting up an SMS notification is nearly identical to the process explained above. SMS notifications do not include a Subject field and do not support attachments. Otherwise, you may personalize or use a pre-made SMS template as you can with emails.

Warning - SMS notifications receive charges differently than emails. Our platform utilizes a credit system at the cost of 1 Credit for every 160 characters in your SMS notification. You will also expend 1 Credit whenever you test your SMS notification. Click here to learn more about our Credit system for templates and notifications.

After you complete these steps, click Continue at the top of the page.

How to Revise Notifications

  1. To revise an existing notification, click on the Campaigns tab. From the list of active campaigns, click on the blue pencil icon on the right.

  4. If you have both an email and SMS notification, you will visit the editors for those notifications in that order. You may make the necessary edits to any of the fields as necessary. When you are finished with making your revisions, click Continue at the top of the page.

    If you are editing both an email and SMS notification, you will now arrive at the SMS editor.

  5. Make any changes as necessary to your SMS notification. Remember that SMS notifications and any tests will incur a charge of 1 Credit for every 160 characters within the text message. When you are satisfied with your revisions, click Continue at the top of the page.

  6. You should now receive a notification confirming that your updates were successful.

How to Cancel Notifications

  1. To cancel existing notifications, click on the Campaigns tab. From the list of active campaigns, click on the blue pencil icon on the right.
