Configuration
There are a few settings that can be adjusted for initial outreach. All of these are customizable on the Associate database table and can be found on the Associates page (opens in a new tab).
Auto Initial
This is a true/false value. If set to true, the app will automatically queue initial emails for them (according to this schedule).
Daily Limit
This is the maximum number of initial outreach emails that will be queued for a given day.
Sending Delay
This is the amount of time (in seconds) between the sending of any initial outreach emails (before factoring in variability).
Delay Variance
When we queue blasts, we want to add a little bit of randomness to the sending delay to make our sending patterns look more human-like. To do this, the server will pick a random amount of seconds from [-delay_variance to delay_variance] that will be added to the sending_delay. For example, a 30s delay with 10s variance means we could have emails queued between 20s and 40s apart.
Blocked Cities / States
This is how an Associate can prevent blasts from going out to Properties in a specific city or state. This is checked by doing a case-insensitive comparison between a Property's city and state, and if a match is found, the BlastContact is stopped.
If there are states that have the same city (e.g., Union City, GA and Union City, NJ), you can block a specific city & state combo by including the state in a blocked city. For example, you could put Union City, NJ as a blocked city.
