Frequently asked questions A campaign lets you send messages at scale to a list of contacts via WhatsApp, LinkedIn or other channels. **Available on:** all plans. **Who can do it:** any user with permission to view campaigns. ## What you need before you start - At least one [connected LinkedIn account](https://nuvia.ai/en/docs/artigos/14489367-how-to-connect-linkedin-to-nuvia) - A contact list with the LinkedIn column filled in ## Step 1 – Start creating the campaign 1. In the side menu, click **Campaigns** 2. Click **New Campaign** 3. Fill in the **Campaign name** field (up to 100 characters). E.g. “Enterprise Prospecting Q1” 4. Select the **Campaign type** – choose **LinkedIn** for your campaign 5. Click **Next** Tip the available channel types depend on the integrations you've already set up. If LinkedIn doesn't show up, check that the channel was connected on the **Apps** screen. ## Step 2 – Define the audience 1. For the activation type, select **Manual** (for your first campaign, start with manual activation) 2. For the audience source, select **List** 3. Choose the contact list to use as the audience 4. In the side panel, check the audience preview showing the number of eligible and ineligible contacts per channel 5. Optionally, turn on **Ignore business hours** if you want to send outside the default hours (8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday) 6. Click **Next** Important once you move past this step, the campaign is created as a **Draft** and you can no longer change the audience. Review carefully before continuing. ## Step 3 – Set up the message sequence 1. Click **Add step** to create the first step of the campaign 2. For each step, set up: - **Message** – type the text to send. To personalize the message, use variables by typing var_ and selecting the option you want from the list. - **Interval** – set the wait time between this step and the next one (if there's more than one step) - Who will receive the contacts' replies: - **AI agent** – replies are handled by the Smart Funnel set up on the channel - **Human agent** – replies go straight to the team's inbox 3. Use the preview in the side panel to see how the message will look with a contact's real data. Move between contacts using the **Previous** and **Next** arrows 4. If you want, add more steps by repeating the process ## Step 4 – Launch the campaign 1. On the summary screen, review all settings: name, channel, audience, steps and variable mapping 2. Click **Launch campaign** 3. Confirm in the dialog that appears 4. The campaign status changes to **Active** and sends start being processed Important after launching the campaign, the message and contacts can't be changed. If you need to make changes, pause the campaign and create a new one. ## Frequently asked questions ## Frequently asked questions **How do I use variables in messages?** In the message field, type var_ and choose the variable you want to use. **Can I edit a campaign after it's launched?** No. After launch, the messages and audience are locked. If you need to adjust something, pause the campaign and create a new one with the fixes. **What are the default business hours for sending?** The default is 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday, in the America/São Paulo time zone. You can turn off this restriction by checking **Ignore business hours** while setting up the audience. **Can I send the same campaign to more than one list?** Each campaign is tied to a single audience source (a list or a funnel stage). To send to multiple lists, create separate campaigns or merge the contacts into a single list before launching.
