Updated over 2 weeks ago

1. Set Your Broadcast Title and Template

  • In the Advanced Editor, begin by giving your broadcast a clear title (e.g., “Friday In-Store Event”) for easy future reference.

  • Choose a template if available — this auto-fills your broadcast with pre-designed content, either self-created or from your corporate team.


2. Decide on Client Contact Inclusion

  • Default: Excludes clients who received any communication (broadcast, automation, or 1:1 message) in the last 24 hours.

  • To include them, select the “Include clients contacted in the last 24 hours” checkbox.


3. Set Sender Details

  • Choose a user from your account to send the message from (for internal tracking).

  • Set the Sender Name your customers will see (e.g., “Mercer Street Store”).

  • Confirm or update the sending email address if needed.


4. Add or Update Bonuses and Promotions

  • If carried over from a basic broadcast, remove it to start fresh.

  • Click “Add Bonus or Promotion”:

    • Choose from:

      • Dollar Amount (e.g., $5 off),

      • Coupon (e.g., % off, BOGO),

      • Custom (e.g., “Buy one, get one free”)

    • Set start and end dates for redemption.


5. Customize Your Text Message

  • Use merge fields like {first_name} or {loyalty_points} to personalize.

  • Enhance your text with:

    • Design Graphic (via OneShop’s built-in editor)

    • Take Photo (if on mobile)

    • Upload/Select Photo

    • Shop With Bag to add product links or images from your store or POS (e.g., Shopify).

📝 Note: If you see “0 clients,” you may either:

  • Not be set up for text messaging yet.

  • Not have customers who have opted into text marketing (consented).


6. Design Your Email

  • Choose between:

    • HTML Graphic Email (default, includes designed images)

    • Plain Text Email (for simple, text-only communication)

  • Set:

    • Subject Line

    • Email Preheader (shows below subject in most inboxes)

  • Click “Edit HTML Email” to access the drag-and-drop editor:

    • Modify content blocks

    • Add images, buttons, social links, and more


7. Define Your Recipients

  • Choose send method:

    • Text or Email

    • Email Only

    • Text Only

  • Based on your selection, OneShop shows the total number of subscribers available to contact.

  • This list dynamically adjusts based on your platform opt-ins (email vs. SMS).


8. Apply Filters to Target Specific Customers

  • Click Filter to refine your recipient list:

    • Filter by purchase history, product tags, customer attributes, and more.

    • Create segmented, personalized campaigns that improve relevance and performance.


9. Save and Send

  • After setting everything:

    • Save your work often using “Save Draft”

    • Test and preview as needed (see prior tutorials for testing)

    • Proceed to Send or Schedule your campaign (covered in a separate tutorial)
