The Campaign Integration Mode setting allows you to configure what happens in Cinch when you create a campaign and schedule it to your email channel.
Create Template Only - By default, CampaignPilot will create an email template in your Cinch software when you schedule a campaign to the email channel. You will still need to manually schedule and send your email message in the Cinch software when in this mode.
Schedule Broadcast Mode - If toggled to this mode, CampaignPilot will create an email template in your Cinch software and additionally schedule a broadcast to your default customer segment. Cinch will automatically message your customers once your campaign is published.
Careful!! In Schedule Broadcast mode you will automatically message your Cinch customers once the CampaignPilot campaign is published.
The following section details how to manage Cinch email templates and scheduled broadcasts with CampaignPilot.
Once Cinch is configured, get started by building a campaign in CampaignPilot. The details you provide throughout the Campaign Wizard will be used to create marketing content in Cinch.
| CampaignPilot Field | Cinch Email Field |
|---|---|
Campaign Title | Subject Line |
Short Description | Email Preview Text |
Full Description | HTML Body Text |
To automatically create marketing content in Cinch you will need to schedule your campaign message to the email channel. Depending on your Integration Mode, either an email broadcast will be scheduled, or a template will be created in Cinch.
If you edit an existing campaign in CampaignPilot, your changes will be updated in the Cinch email template or broadcast settings. For example, if you need to change the Subject Line to an email in Cinch, you can edit the CampaignPilot campaign and adjust the title.
If you delete a campaign in CampaignPilot, any email template or scheduled broadcast created in Cinch will also be deleted.
