On the entrance platform - all campaigns share one thing in common - they exist to orchestrate the process of crafting one message - combined with your data - reaching numerous people with personalized messages. 

‍

Each campaign type achieves this goal slightly differently

‍

-Single blast - After uploading your data and crafting your custom message. Selecting send on a single blast campaign automatically triggers the system to send every single contact included in your uploaded data their custom message. Message send time varies depending on the number of messages you are sending.

-Burst - A burst campaign is similar to a “single blast campaign” sent over the course of multiple days at a specified time. After uploading your data and crafting your custom message. You are required to fill in some additional fields including “Days” “Time” and a “Saturday” and “Sunday” checkbox. 

These options are utilized in a burst campaign.

Selecting send on a burst campaign automatically triggers Entrance to divide your outgoing messages into multiple days. The messages are then scheduled to be sent at the inputted time over the course of the number of inputted days. The Saturday and Sunday checkboxes will determine whether messages will be sent on those days of the weekend. Message send time varies depending on the number of messages you are sending.

-Scheduled - A scheduled  campaign is similar to a “single blast campaign” but instead - the message is sent at a pre-specified date and time. After uploading your data and crafting your custom message. You are required to fill in some additional fields including “Date” and “Time”.

These options are utilized in a scheduled campaign.

Selecting send on a scheduled campaign automatically triggers Entrance to schedule messages to be sent at the inputted time. Message send time varies depending on the number of messages you are sending.

‍

-Personal - A personal campaign is a tool for multi user workspaces. A personal campaign is similar to a “single blast campaign” but differs in how responses are handled only. Normally - any responses are handled depending on the state of the claims system.
