Broadcasts

Broadcasts let you send a single message to many audience members at once. They’re ideal for announcements, product updates, newsletters, and any message where the audience is “a group”, not one specific user.

What a broadcast is

A broadcast is a bulk send job. You choose:

  • Who should receive it (for example, a segment or your entire audience)
  • What you’re sending (typically a template, sometimes manual content)
  • When to send it (now vs scheduled)

Broadcasts help you keep targeting and content decisions in one place, instead of scattering one-off scripts across repos.

How it fits into the system

  • Segments define recipient sets.
  • Templates keep content consistent across channels and iterations.
  • Categories + Preferences ensure you respect opt-outs at scale.
  • Delivery tracking (especially for email) is much more valuable in a broadcast context because you can monitor outcomes across a population.

Getting started

  1. Identify members and make sure they have the attributes you need for targeting.
  2. Create a segment (optional but recommended) to define the audience.
  3. Create a template for the message.
  4. Create a broadcast in the Dashboard, select your segment, choose channels, and send a test to confirm rendering.
