Selected Step Details
If you are creating a One-Time Play you will have the option to determine at what date/time the email is sent.
NOTE: The time indicated in the Play Step settings refers to the time in the Timezone of the user who created the play, not the tenant Timezone.
If it is a Continuous Play, you can determine when the email is sent out in relation to the previous step. You can also make the choice to not start the wait time until the previous step completes. Turn on "Active Hours" if you want the email to only be sent during the hours you have set up in your Administration Settings.
Email Details
- Send As - This will determine who it looks like the email is coming from. This can be a selected ChurnZero Account User, or personalize it to come from an Account Role (i.e The Account's Customer Success Manager or Owner).
- Different Reply To- If you would like replies to this email to go to a different email address, change this setting to "Yes". You will then be able to update which user the email will go to when the contact clicks "Reply".
- Email Type
- Transactional - Use this option for one off communications.
- Marketing- Marketing emails, by law, must include an option for the contact to opt out of future messages. Selecting "Marketing" will automatically add an option for the contact to opt out of any future marketing emails. Learn more about unsubscribe options on marketing emails.
