What is Magic Reach?
Did you know that the most successful businesses in the world use email to talk to their audiences?
To email so many people at once, these businesses use software designed to send out emails in bulk... by the millions!
It might seem old fashioned, but people still use email and it's still the best way to communicate with the people you need to reach.
And the same is true for communities.
Enter Magic Reach, an all new way to contact your community members so that you know you're reaching them. It's like the software those big brands use, but designed specifically for community management (it's clean, simple, and easy to use!).
Here's how it works π
Write your message and choose the audience you want to send it to. You can only send Magic Reach messages to members of your community.
The message will first be sent as an email.
If the email isn't opened, Magic Reach will know.
It will then find the best way to send your message to make sure it's opened and read (usually on the member's preferred chat platform).
Walkthrough
Go to your Manager portal and click on the Magic Reach tab.
Choose the people who will get your message. You have three options:
People who showed interest in your community but didn't finish signing up.
All members of your community.
Or choose to message only certain members of your community from a pre-made list.
Type your message in the box and include a subject line.
You can save it as a draft, or send it as a test to yourself. Once you've tested it, you can send it to your audiences.
And you're done! Message sent :)

And so much more!
