Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Choose Target
Navigate to Schedule Broadcast
Click Add Schedule Broadcasts to start creating a new broadcast.
Enter Broadcast Name
Input a name for your broadcast in the Schedule Broadcast Name field.
Duplicate Numbers
Enable the checkbox Want to Allow Duplicate Numbers if you want to send messages to the same contact multiple times.

You can target your message to:
One-to-One: Upload phone numbers with the country code or manually select numbers.
Use the Upload or Select options for easier input.
Groups: Send messages to specific groups. Use the Groups button to select the desired group.
Tabs: Target contacts that are organized under specific tabs. Use Tabs to select.

2. Choose Message & Delay
Add Message Content
Click the Add Message button to create your message.

Add Multiple Messages
Multiple Messages: You can add multiple messages such as text, images, or audio.
Randomize Messages
Send Random Messages:
If you add multiple messages (e.g., “Hello,” “Hi,” or “How are you?”) and want to randomize them across the recipients, enable the Send a single random message to each contact checkbox.
For example, if you have 10 contacts and 3 messages, the system will randomly send one of the 3 messages to each recipient.
Send Sequential Messages
Sequential Messages:
You can set messages to be sent in a sequence with specific time intervals.
Example:
Add the first message and set the time interval to 5 seconds.
Add the second message (e.g., an image) and set the time interval to 10 seconds.
Add the third message (e.g., an audio file) and set the time interval to 15 seconds.
The messages will be sent to the recipients one after another, based on the set time intervals.
Templates
If applicable, use the Select Templates button to load pre-saved message templates.
Proceed to Next Step
