Here’s the scenario.  You’ve created a campaign and sent it out a month ago.  Since then you’ve had new prospects sign up for the same list and now you would like to resend the same campaign to only the new contacts. How do you do this?

This is easy.  We’re going to send to a list of prospects and we’ll filter based on dates.

Here’s what to do:1. Select the campaign and send it as normal.
2. Use the “Filter” option and “Filter by date subscribed” This will give you a date field that you can select.
3. You select the date that you want to filter by, so it would be something like: Contacts that have subscribed after 20 Oct 2007.
4. Send the campaign as you normally would. It will only be sent to those that have subscribed after the designated date.

This will only send the emails to people who have subscribed after you have sent the email the first time.

Another alternative to this is to create an auto-pilot campaign program instead of an email campaign. You can then set the auto-pilot program to be sent immediately after subscription and make sure you select to send to existing contacts.

This will send the email to all the current contacts on your contact list and then will send to anyone who signs up after.
