The Status column helps you track each email thread’s progress with a specific influencer.

  1. Filter by Mailing name in the Mailing column or by Campaign name in the Campaign column.

  2. Search by recipient's media name using the Search by recipient box to find the specific thread.

  3. The email’s latest status is displayed in the Status column.

Monitor mailing delivery with the sending progress bar

The Mailing sending progress bar (located next to the Recipient search box) provides a visual representation of your scheduled emails' progress.

📌 Important for Campaign Users:

  • The bar counts both initial emails and follow-ups.

  • Even if all initial emails are sent, the progress bar won’t show 100% until all scheduled follow-ups are completed.

Best practices for tracking emails efficiently

1. Use multiple filters to refine your Inbox view

The Inbox columns allow you to filter email threads by Mailing name, Status, Campaign, etc, ensuring you see only what’s important.

  • Apply multiple filters at once for more precise results.

  • Customize your tableview by adding columns using "Manage Fields".

Example: To check who has replied to a specific Campaign, filter by Campaign > Campaign name, then by Status > Replied.

2. Use ChatGPT-powered features to simplify your communication

  • Influencers receive emails either from Upfluence mailing provider or from your Outlook/Gmail, depending on the sender you set up.

  • All email threads started from Upfluence are available in both Upfluence and your personal inbox.

If you reply within Upfluence, you can use ChatGPT-powered tools to:

  • Save time by generating and refining email responses.

  • Improve communication with AI-assisted suggestions for clarity and professionalism.
