Automation Path Builder - Delivery time customization settings, select specific days of the week

0 Votes

I made the move from to Constant Contact and one feature that I really need and it is missing is the ability to set up email automations and set specific days of the week at which the emails should be sent out. 

 

For example, in my business I have one educational campaign that consists of two emails per week that go out on Tuesdays and Thursdays, it is a series of 28-30 emails total. 

 

Ideally, I will be able to register new contacts manually, or coming from FB ads, and regardless of when those contacts get on my database I want them to get on that automation and receive those emails only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Starting from email 1 on the automation. 

 

This is important to me because I am trying to schedule certain topics for specific days of the week. Without this feature there won't be any organization and contacts may receive more than one email on any given day, and none when they are supposed to, etc. 

 

Would it be possible to add this feature?

Requesting that Constant Contact Create Automation feature where users can set up an automation to send a campaign email out on a specified day of the week and can edit the frequency as well. 

 

 

Example 

 

I want to set up an automation to go out on friday but be able customize the frequency for options like; one time only, the first week of every month, bi-weekly, weekly or yearly.
