  1. Enable click tracking to gain valuable insights into the effectiveness of your campaign. This feature provides a comprehensive overview of the links that were clicked, including the frequency of clicks and the contact details of individuals who engaged with the links within your email.
  2. Furthermore, you can enable UTM tracking to apply UTM parameters by default to your campaign.
  3. Toggle on "Add Tags" in the Batch Schedule screen to automate tagging for segmented batches based on interactions, using triggers and tags to personalize campaigns and optimize audience engagement.
