Make an email blast in your own branding, choose who gets it, review it and send it, then follow it as it goes out, stop it if you need to, and know when it's done.

An email blast is one email you design once and send to many people: a monthly newsletter, a market update, a just-listed announcement or an event invitation. It goes out in your words and your branding, from an address that gets replies, to people who know you. It never replaces the personal texts and calls on your Deck.

Start an email

Tap More, then Email blasts, then New email.
Pick a template, or start blank or from a past email, and tap Next.
Your branding is already on it: your logo, your colors and a font pairing, set from your logo the first time. Tap Your branding to change it, for this email or every one.

The email opens on its checklist: To, From, Subject and Design. Each row says what's left to do.

Fill in the checklist

Design opens the editor. Words in a sun-colored, dashed underline are for you to fill in. Sample numbers, names and photos can't go out as they are, so swap in your own.
To chooses who gets it: a group, a People search, an event's guests or people you pick. One number says how many will get it, and everyone else is under Left out with the reason.
From is whose name it goes out under. The first time, you pick your email name ([email protected], say). Your team's brokerage and mailing address and your license number go in every email's footer, so add them if From asks.
Subject is the first thing people see. Keep it short and specific.

There's no "send to everyone" button up front on purpose: the people who know you best read and answer your emails. People AveryIQ has seen no contact with yet are left out unless you tap Include (Who can get your emails).

Review and send

Tap Review. Before you send lists anything that would stop the email, then Ready to send shows who gets it, who it's from, how many of your plan's emails it uses and anything worth knowing (a new domain goes slower, say).

Send to 1,204 people sends it in a minute.
Send later picks a time up to 30 days out. Right before it goes, we check again for anyone who unsubscribed or bounced since.

If the list changed since you opened Review (someone unsubscribed, a person joined the group), it says so and asks you to look again, so nothing goes to people you didn't see.

The minute to change your mind

After you tap send, a ring counts down Sending in 0:58. Tap Undo and it's back to a draft: nothing went out, and nothing counts toward your limit. A scheduled email shows when it goes, with Unschedule. Anyone on your team can Undo or Unschedule.

While it goes out

The email's page shows Sending · 240 of 1,180 with a thin line that fills as it goes. You can leave the screen. Emails go out at a steady pace, so a big one takes a while, and people who unsubscribed, bounced or were deleted since you approved are skipped and counted.

Sent 900 today. The rest go tomorrow morning. AveryIQ's shared address sends a set number a day while it builds its reputation with mail providers. The rest go the next morning on their own. When other teams are sending from it the same day, it says yours goes out a little at a time.
Stop sending stops everyone who hasn't been sent it yet. Copies already sent stay sent, and the last few may still go: the page says Stopping… until they have, then how many people got it. Anyone on your team can stop it, and you can't undo a stop: duplicate the email to send the rest later.
Paused means something has to be fixed before the rest go, and the page says what: billing (an owner taps Fix billing), your domain or our team looking into spam reports or bounces (Get help). The rest go once it's fixed. If it was paused before anything went out and its time has passed, or it couldn't start on time, it waits for you: Send now or Back to drafts. Send now counts against this month's emails, so if a new month began while it waited and it no longer fits, move it back to drafts to narrow who gets it. If nobody picks one within 14 days, it goes back to drafts on its own, with nothing sent. An email that had started and was paused past the start of a new month stops if the rest doesn't fit that month's emails.
If our email provider can't be reached, it keeps trying for 2 hours, then stops so it doesn't go out late. Duplicate it to try again.
Checking means it sent to the first 100 addresses your team has never emailed and is waiting about 10 minutes to see how many bounce. If too many do, it pauses and you choose Stop here or Send to the rest.
An email stops itself if several people mark it as spam or too many addresses bounce, so one bad list never reaches everyone. See Unsubscribes, bounces and spam reports.

When it's done, you get a notification ("Your email went to 1,176 people") and the page reads Sent to 1,176 people. Below it, Who to talk to lists the people who asked, replied or clicked something that shows interest, and How it went has what each number means. See See how your email did, and who to talk to.

After it's sent

When someone replies, it comes back to you: Avery files it on their page, puts it on your deck with an answer drafted if it needs one, and sends a copy to your own inbox. See When someone replies to your email.

When a teammate makes it for you

Anyone on your team can make an email for someone else. They pick you under From and tap Ask Maya to review. You get a notification, and the email waits at the top of Email blasts under Waiting on you. Only you can send an email that goes out under your name.
