At this stage, you'll edit the email name, add sender details, and select recipients:
- You can rename the campaign by clicking the Edit icon (a pencil) in the top-left corner.

- CRM owner address: If integrated with Zoho CRM, emails are automatically sent using the CRM owner's address.
After entering the details, click Save to proceed.
- Add recipients by clicking Add Recipients. Select an email list or segment. A segment is a subset of your email list based on specific criteria or conditions. For example, you can segment customers over 50 years old by gender or by the products they choose.

3. Add Email Content
To design your email content:
Click Create Content to begin.
Choose a template. Zoho Campaigns offers two main options:
- Pre-designed Templates: Ready-to-use designs for specific themes.

For this example, select Pre-designed Templates and choose a theme like "Happy New Year." Click Use This Template to continue.
Customize the content and add images using the drag-and-drop editor.
After editing, click Preview and Test to review the final design.
Once satisfied, click Proceed to move to the next step.

Before sending the campaign, test the email to ensure it reaches the intended recipients with the correct settings:
- Click Test Email in the Content section.
- Add an email address (e.g., your own) and click Send Test Email to perform a test.
- If no issues arise, your setup is correct. If errors occur, review the steps to fix them.

After completing all steps, Zoho Campaigns will confirm that your setup is successful.
You have two options:
- Send Now: Immediately send the email campaign to your recipient list.
- Send in Batches: Distribute the campaign in batches to reduce server load and minimize the chance of emails being marked as spam. Set the interval between batches as needed.
Choose Send Now and click Send to launch your campaign.
