Send that email!

If you clicked "Save and Continue" you will see this screen:

What you will be doing is copy and pasting the link, subjectline, and body over to the mailer, and then sending your email to other members of that mailer. 

If you supplied your login information and the mailer supports autologin, click the Auto Login button.  If not, click the login URL to open the mailer website in a new tab.  Login to the mailer and click the link on their menu to "Send a Mailing".  Each mailer has a different layout, but most have a menu either on the left side of the screen with a link title "Send Mailing" or a menu at the top with a similar link. 

You must have credits in order to send an email.  Most mailers will give you some credits to start with, so you should be able to send something right now.  You'll earn credits by clicking links in emails sent to you, and I'll show you how to do that in your EBB dashboard later in this article.

Here is what a typical mailer "Send Emailing" screen looks like:

Step by step: Switch back to your EBB dashboard and click on the email subject line to highlight it.  Copy it by right clicking your mouse and choosing "copy" from the menu.  Switch back to the mailers tab and paste the subject of your email into the field that says "Message Subject".   Switch back to EBB, click on the email body, click on "Select All" to highlight everything.  Copy and switch back to the mailer, and paste that into the "Message Body" field.  Where it says "Site URL", you will paste the Tracking link for this mailout that we provide (it is a short url that gets automatically generated by the system).  This will be the link other members of the viral mailer will click to earn credits, and it should go to your landing page.

Once you have copy and pasted the subject, body, and link over to the mailer, you will go the mailers send screen and enter the number of credits you want to spend, and then click on the Send button.  You will most likely have a chance to verify the link you entered is working.  Once you have, click the confirm button to send your email to their list!

When you are done you can close that mailer, and in your EBB dashboard, click the green "I'm done sending" button at the bottom of the page. 

You will see this form:

Fill in the number of email you sent.  Usually 1 credit = 1 email, so if you sent to 500, then enter 500.  The "new credit balance" will auto calculate based on the number you enter, but if it's wrong you can change it to whatever it is.  When you have filled in this information, click Save and Finish.

When you manage your mailers now, you will see a count down timer to let you know when you can send to this mailer again.

Repeat this process for each mailer.
