Here's a helpful video on how to do this:
Upfluence mailing tool helps you save time and increase conversion rates by reaching out to influencers at scale via automated and customized email campaigns. You can create mailings and add influencers from different tools, such as the IRM (Influencer relationship Management), Workflow, Search and of course the Mailing tool.
Create a new mailing
From the IRM, select the influencers you'd like to contact and click on Create > Email.
From Workflow, you need to first select influencers and click on "send new email"
From the mailing tool, you need to first select influencers and click on "New Mailing"
From your lists, you just need to click on the "envelope" button and a menu will show, there you can select to contact your selected influencers
For all the methods above, the same email editing window will open.
Create your Email Body
Whenever you create a new mailing, the first thing you need to do is to add your Mailing Name. Simply pick a name for your mailing. Make sure it is unique and that it is specific enough to help identify this mailing in the future. You can always change it later.
After you named your mailing, select your Email Sender. If you'd like to use your Gmail or Outlook inbox make sure to connect your account to Upfluence before you run your mailing.
NOTE: The email sender cannot be changed after the first email has been sent out.
Now you can set up your email subject and body. Our toolbox allows you to customize an email's content (Subject, Body, and Attachments). An HTML code view is accessible for advanced users using the "</>" icon.
You also have the possibility to use merge fields and fallback values to personalize each email and increase your reply rate. You can use pre-set merge fields or create your own merge fields. For each merge field, you can use fallback values.
When you are happy with your email, you can click on "send" the mailing will be saved and start being sent.
Add influencers to your Mailing
Now you have your new email created, you can add influencers to your email.
You can add influencers from different parts of the platform using the "move to" features.
NOTE: If you created your new mailing from the IRM or the Workflow, the influencer you selected will be automatically added to your mailing.
You can add influencers from:
The search tool:
Select the list of your choice.
Click on "Add to".
Click on "Add selected influencers to" A pop-up window will open.
Select your mailing and add your list.
The Influencer relationship management tool:
