scheduling automatic weekly email

BAWPO

Because I often forget to send the weekly reminder, I'd like to schedule a weekly automated mail out. I saw a thread from back in 2018 regarding this very question but the link with the suggested answer is no longer live.

 

I know that I can set schedule several email reminders in advance for my weekly communication but I'm hoping there is a more efficient way. 

 

Thanks!

Katherine

We ask for additional comments and votes be left on the open idea for scheduling the same email multiple times. Our Product team regularly reviews our Feedback boards more than our Get Help area. Though we do not have a time estimate if a feature like this will be available in the product, any updates will be posted there, not on this post. Voting and commenting on the linked post above helps to influence future product decisions and allows you to be notified of replies from our teams.

 

As a workaround you can make copies of a campaign and setting them for 'schedule for later' at a future date.

Hi -- Making copies and scheduling is tedious -- but the only way I seem to be able to do this (other than some really complicated imperfect "trigger" thing).

Surprising that something this simple isn't available. Is it?  I just want to one time say:  "Send this email every Wednesday at 10 AM" -- and be done with it.

Hi Zoe -- Any progress on this?  Surely many CC users would want/need/use this feature.

It can't be that hard to program, no?

I am still copying/pasting/scheduling every week -- can't wait for this to be one automatic command.
