Automatic Rate Per Minute (RPM)
Quick Trick: Switch on Auto RPM for your campaign. Your campaign rate will then be set automatically at a rate that will spread your send across the available time window.
For Daily Campaign - You can now use our Automatic Rate Per Minute to calculate the rate your messages should be sent at so they are distributed evenly between the set start and end time of your schedule. To ensure the messages all go we set the automatic rate c. 10% faster.
This can be switched on as you create a new campaign or edit an existing campaign
This feature takes the available time window and spreads evenly the number of texts sent per minute (e.g., 60 texts between 10-11 Am will be sent at 1 per minute rate). The rate per minute is calculated from the start of the schedule window. If a file is dropped in after that time, then it calculates how many messages should have been sent up to that point and sends those all at once. The Campaign is trying to catch up. So if I have a file of 100 contacts and I have a scheduled start time of 09:00 and an end time of 09:10, with a Campaign rate of 10 per minute, the following would happen: A file dropped in before 09:00 would schedule to start at 09:00, then send 10 messages at 9:00, 10 at 09:01 and so on. But if I dropped the file in at 09:05, it would send 60 messages at 09:05 (the 50 that should have gone between 9 - 9:04 and the 10 from 09:05).
When creating a new campaign or editing an existing one
From your next file upload the schedule will automatically calculate the rate per minute based on the time available between the set start and end time and the number of messages in your group. If a file is uploaded after the start time then the rate will be calculated between the current time and the end time.
If you upload a file later than the start time, the calculation will still run from the set start time. In this case you may need to review the rate to ensure it is fast enough.
