Birthday Campaign

Hello,

I have set a birthday email as directed with the two smart campaigns and the wait steps. But as soon as I run the second one, the emails send right away and don't deploy for the wait campaigns as directed, or on the right day. I am only testing with two of my own emails with different dates just to make sure.

Can anyone help?

Hi Dena, have you looked into the instructions written out on the following page?

Sending a Birthday Message

If you've been following those instructions, it would help to see your Smart List/Flow Steps for each of the campaigns.

EDIT: I noticed that you wrote a comment on that post. As I said, it would help to see your Smart List/Flow Steps for each of your campaigns.

Is this what you would need to see? My smart list is just my own emails as I am testting.

Your token should be {{lead.Birthday}} rather than {{leads.Birthday}}, so this may be what is causing the problem for you. A few other things to consider:

How is your Campaign Schedule setup? Do you have a scheduled recurrence for every day prior to 5PM PDT? Do you have the qualification rules to run the person through the campaign flow once every 12 months?
