Reminder emails can be set up to be sent out with several recurring patterns. Monthly is a common patter for reminder emails.
Scheduling a monthly reminder email begins by registering an account and logging in. Sign Up. You will need to confirm your account via email before creating any monthly email reminders.
After you have registered and confirmed your account, Log in. You should be taken directly to your "Manage" pane. If you have not setup any recurring reminders yet, it will be empty. To setup a monthly email reminder, click "New Email". Other options for Polls and Texts also can be setup on a monthly schedule, but we will be discussing monthly reminders.
The first required information to send out a monthly email reminder is at least one email address as a recipient. Recipients can go in any of the To, Cc, or Bcc fields. Also include a Subject for your reminder before moving on to scheduling options.
Make sure Monthly is selected in the vertical list of schedule types. Scheduling options for a monthly reminder are straightforward. You can customize the day of the month as well as the frequency of months. For example the "2nd" of every "1" month will send every month on the second.
Entering a time to send is required. The email will be sent accoring to your local time. If you emails are not being sent at the correct time, please go to your settings page and verify that your timezone offset is correct.
Emails scheduled to go out on the same day that are created become dependent on the Time to Send value. If it is 4:00 PM and you specified a Time to Send of 3:00 PM, your email will not go out on the same day, it will be scheduled for the next available time which would be a month from today, at 3:00 PM.
Start Date is an optional field that allows you to specify a day in the future on which your reminder pattern will begin. If you leave Start Date blank and have a pattern like "the 2nd of every 1 month", and today is the 1st of the month, your email will be sent tomorrow. In the same scenario if you change the start date to the 3rd of this month, you email will be sent on the 2nd of the next following month, and every 2nd thereafter.
After you have entered all of the required information for your email's schedule, the first day it will be sent will appear below the schedule controls. Please verify that this is what you intended before saving your email.
After typing in recipient and subject information, and specifying a schedule pattern for your email, you are ready to type in your message. Anything can go in the message box: formatted text, copy-pasted HTML text, etc. Images need to be hosted elsewhere and inserted with the image tool.
Make sure to hit "Save". Even when an email is being edited you must click "Save" for the changes to take effect.
