One time campaign are one-shot effort to reach your customers with a specific message, offer, or announcement. Use it for time-sensitive promotions or important updates.
Before we start with the steps to create a one-time campaign; two notable points are:
You need to have a set of audience, i.e. a created segment to whom you want to target. In case you don't, create a segment here.
Campaign can run with any segment whether static or live.
An approved template tailored to your targeted audience and the campaign goal. If you don't have, create a template here.
If you have a template and it is not approved, you will not find it while selecting templates in the below procedure.
We know one-time campaign are meant for time-sensitive promotions. Keeping that in mind suppose you're in a e-commerce business and want to notify your customers about the flash sale that begins tonight at 8 p.m.
How do you that?
Create Campaign
Head over to the Campaign tab and click 'Create Campaign.'
Select One-Time Campaign
Start by giving a relevant name to your campaign. This helps in identifying and tracking different campaigns easily.
For the scenario above we can name our campaign 'Flash Sale.'
Add date as a postfix to differentiate from other flash sale. It also allows quick access when you want to track.
Choose the type of campaign as "One-Time Campaign." This implies that the campaign will be sent out only once and not on a recurring basis.
Delivery Time
Decide when to deliver your campaign. It'll have two options:
For the above scenario we choose custom date with date 03.02.24, time 08:00 pm and in user's project's timezone.
4. Select Audience
Target a specific audience or combine several segments as the target audience. Choose from a dropdown list of pre-made segments. You can add multiple segments by clicking on '+' button.
We already created a segment called 'Sale enthusiast,' we select that.
5. Choose Message Template
Select the message template that your recipients will receive. Choose from a dropdown list of pre-made templates.
The Set attribute option is available only when the selected template has dynamic variables in it.
We created a template called 'flash sale,' so we select it and set the attributes as first name for both the header and body.
6. Post Campaign Trigger (Optional)
Optionally, set up post-campaign triggers to update attributes, manage segments, and implement a "Do Not Disturb" (DND) policy based on the selected event. Use conditional logic based on events such as sent, delivered, read, failed, or replied.
Let's say we want to assign tag 'flash sale enthusiast' to all the customers who tap 'Interested' button in the template.
So we select Notification reply>Button reply and enter the value as Interested.
You can add maximum two filter, one from each notification send and notification reply.
You can add multiple 'Post campaign trigger' by clicking 'add another event' and repeating the steps to create the 'post campaign trigger.'

7. WhatsApp Optin
Choose to send the campaign only to customers whose "WhatsApp Opted" status is true. This is a recommended practice. Toggle it on.

8. Send Once
Choose to send the campaign only to new customers who haven't received this template before. This helps in avoiding redundancy.
We toggle it off as we created a new template.
