I have just begun using aweber again after a bit of a lay off… mainly using the broadcast messages… but I have now a need to use the campaign process… why have you made it so difficult… it was easy to use before!

So I have added a campaign… I just need to add new messages into it and set frequency of delivery.

i am close to giving up on aweber and moving somewhere else…

Please simplify this for me

Pete

Hey Pete, welcome back! 👋

Thanks for reaching out. I’m happy to demonstrate how easy Campaigns are to set up… and how powerful they can be:

1. Click on the name of your campaign to open the campaign editor. Add additional “Send Message” actions where you want it.

2. Set your send delay by adding and adjusting the “Wait” actions between each message (like “1 day before performing the next action”).

3. Don’t forget to save your changes and re-activate your campaign when you’re done!
