Distributing Marketing Campaign Activity (Channel : Email)

Posted on by MittalPatel

Hello,

I am implementing one solution for Marketing module on Dynamics CRM OL 2015.

I have created Marketing list, Campaign Activity with Channel as Email.

PS: Email configuration is done successfully for all the user's mail boxes.

Now, questions are:

1. When I distribute this Campaign Activity, will system send email through CRM OL to all contacts in Marketing List OR will it create only Email Activity for all Contacts , and then manually have to send them?

2. If Marketing list contains 5000+ records, then CRM OL would be able to manage sending emails or will it hit performance when it is running?

3. Do I need to look for any third party solution for Email Blasting?

4. Can we use Azure Send Grid API to perform email blasting using custom application? because per subscription we get 25000 emails per month free.

Please suggest.

Thank you

Hi,

1. When you distribute the campaign activity, the CRM will not only create the email activity. It will also send emails to all contact in marketing list.

2. This is a background process so it should not affect the performance.

3. You don't have to look for any 3rd party solution as CRM campaigns and CRM Quick campaigns are good enough for sending out bulk emails.

4. Not sure about this point.
