Email Broadcast in Enlitly

Email Broadcast in Enlitly allows you to send bulk emails to your contacts. Email marketing can work wonders for your business, if done properly and regularly.

Before you start sending broadcast emails, here is what we recommend

1. Always use a custom domain email, because then you have some control over domain reputation. A good domain reputation will help improve your email deliverability.
2. Set up your DNS settings for the custom email. Here is a full article explaining what you should do to improve deliverability rate and avoid landing in spam folders.

Now once you have your domain email ready, the very first step in Enlitly is to verify your email. This verification is different that account email verification. We use Amazon SES as our email delivery service, and we need each and every email verified with Amazon. You can use multiple emails to send emails from Enlitly but all of them have to be verified.

Next, you can compose an email using a default template. When you use a default template, system picks your “send from” email address from your business. This is usually your account email but you can always change your default business address by emailing support@enlitly.com. You can also use any verified email address to send emails.

If the template has social media block in the footer, it will pick up social media links defined in the dynamic social media block in the site editor. You can edit it here or in the site editor, either way changes in social media links are reflected across your business.

You have option to save as draft, schedule the broadcast or send email immediately.

Note that all schedules are in UTC/GMT time. If you choose to schedule emails, convert your desired time to UTC/GMT time.
