Spectora Mass Email enables you to reach large audiences to build your business. Seeing how your audience engages with your messages helps you grow as a marketer. 🧠

A few minutes after you hit "send" our email servers provide a status report of recipient interactions and success rates. These will continue to update every few minutes so check back after a day or so to see if clicks & opens increase!

Email statistics are visible as a table on each email's page, which you can access by hitting "View" next to any sent message on the Mass Email page.
