How to Create and Schedule a Campaign

Last updated on May 15, 2026

A campaign in Mailzzy takes you through a clear step-by-step process — from naming your send to designing your email and choosing when it goes out. This guide covers every step of the campaign creation workflow.

Step 1: Start a New Campaign

  1. Click Create Campaign from Dashboard or Campaigns page in Mailzzy.
  2. Select Regular Campaign.

  1. Enter an internal campaign name — this is for your reference only and will not be shown to recipients.
  2. Click Create Campaign to proceed.

Step 2: Configure Your From Details

Select the sender identity your recipients will see:

  • From Name — Your business name or personal name as it should appear in the inbox.
  • From Email — Your verified sending address. Only verified senders appear in this dropdown.

Note: If your sender email has not been verified, navigate to your profile menu > Senders, Domains & Dedicated IPs > Senders and complete the verification before returning to this step.

Step 3: Select Your Recipients

Choose who will receive the campaign — a contact list, one or more groups, or a saved segment.

Step 4: Write Your Subject Line and Preview Text

  • Subject line — Be clear, specific, and truthful. Avoid anything that could be flagged as misleading or spammy.
  • Preview text — The short snippet that appears next to the subject in the inbox. Use it to add a secondary hook or supporting detail.

Note: Use the AI Subject Line Helper to generate subject line options based on your email content.

  2. Select a pre-designed template or begin with a blank layout.

  4. Preview the design on both desktop and mobile before finalizing.
