Activating a Campaign
Mailing your campaign is the method through which you can send your mailers after importing your list. For more information on how to import a list, please click this article: Importing Properties.
Note: Starting from Spring 2024, we will bill for mailings upon campaign creation.

Activating Your Campaign
To activate your campaign, select it and click the Activate Campaign button. Start by choosing the template you want to mail out and entering your return address. You will then see a preview of the template. Ensure you are satisfied with the appearance of the letter during this preview. If any changes are needed, click Edit Template.
You'll then be presented with options to set the Daily Send Count, Mail Type, Print Type, and Double-sided mailers.
- Daily Send Count: Select the number of mailers sent out daily
- Mail Type: Select Standard or First Class
- Print Type: Select black-and-white or color
- Double-Sided: Select whether your mailers will have text printed on the back of the mailer or not.
After configuring your campaign settings, the final step is to make the payment. Your mailers will be batched every evening and printed the next business day.
Campaign Payment
When you activate a campaign, you can either pay the full campaign amount or pay a custom portion of the campaign amount. This usage balance will decrease as mailings are sent.
Pausing a campaign will stop mailing to unmailed recipients, and leave the remaining amount in your usage balance. Usage payments will be charged to the card on file for your Pebble subscription unless a new card is added by pressing the Add New Card button.
Note: The campaign payment can be less than the estimated campaign cost. All campaigns will be automatically paused if your usage balance reaches $0.
Pausing Your Campaign
If you would like to edit the specifications for this campaign, you would need to pause it, adjust the settings then re-activate the campaign.
Resending Failed Mailers
There are several reasons why mailers may be tagged as having a failed status, including misspelled street names, incomplete or missing address information, and other errors in the way the address is entered. These types of issues can cause the system to flag the address as invalid and result in failed mailings.
Pebble gives you the option to update the address and resend the mailers.
To begin, verify that the address you have is correct. Then edit the address accordingly. Hit Save contact.
To resend your mailer, click on the three dots (ellipsis) and select the "Resend" option. Additionally, you have the option to preview your mailer before resending it.
Note: When sending mail to locations such as offices and apartments, the accuracy of Address Line 2 is extremely important. Even if the main address is accurate, an incorrect/blank Address Line 2 can hinder the successful delivery of the mailer. We suggest reviewing mailers that include a suite, apartment, or unit number and ensuring they are correctly added to the Address Line 2 section of the contact.
