Using Target Send Date to keep track of your communications

Add a target send date to every edition to plan your comms


Target Send Date allows you to better plan, track, and organize your communications by adding a target send date to your edition draft.

Target Send Date appears in your workspace in the "Status" column to the left of the name of your draft. New editions will have an auto-assigned date set for 3 days from creation date at 9am ET. 

❗Target Send Date will not actually send your edition unless you toggle on “Automatically send at this time.”

💡How it works: 

  • There are three ways to change your Planned Send Date:
  1. On your “Drafts” page, click on the date in the “Status” column. If the edition is not yet planned, you can click on “No target” to schedule a date.
  2. On your “Drafts” page, click on the three dots on the right-hand side and select “Schedule.”
  3. In the editor, click “Send” and select “Schedule send.”
  • In the “Schedule Edition” modal, select the date and time that you would like the edition to be sent. The delivery time will be local to your time zone.
  • If you would like the edition to automatically send at the scheduled time, toggle on “Automatically send at this time,” select your audience, then hit “Schedule send.”


  • To remove the date altogether, click on the “X” to the right of the date.

Managing target send notifications

  • Click on the bell icon in the top right to view target send date notifications in the HQ notification center. 
  • Navigate to "Series settings" then "Notifications" to turn notification off/on or adjust the notification day. 
  • For One-offs navigate to "One-off settings" then "Notifications" to turn notification off/on or adjust the notification day.

Same as you do now – click “Schedule send” in the editor, pick the date (the auto send toggle will be automatically toggled on), and click “Schedule send.”
