Overview

Email Cadences creates, organizes, reviews, and applies reusable Post-Call and Auto-Cadence copy. Saved Campaigns counts logical campaigns while retaining older copies. Apply now opens a checkbox picker so one reviewed saved sequence can be applied to several eligible campaigns in one operation.

How to use this page

  1. Choose the client and create copy

    Select the client and open a saved campaign. SalesHive staff can use New Campaign to write a manual sequence or generate one with Playmaker AI. A manual campaign can have 1 to 10 steps with Variant A only or Variants A and B. AI generation requires a completed Playmaker. Choose the style, instructions, Campaign Section and Email Steps, then select Generate Campaign. When generation finishes and the draft is saved, the page opens that copy for review.

  2. Find the current copy and retained history

    On a narrow screen, select Browse campaigns under Saved Campaigns, then choose a copy. The list closes after your selection; Hide campaigns also closes it. The Playbook campaign groups Current Post-Call and Current Auto-Cadence together, with Older Playbook snapshots collapsed below. Other saved campaigns show the newest same-name, same-section copy first and retain Previous copies. On load, the page opens the Current Playbook copy when available, otherwise the top saved campaign.

  3. Edit and validate each email

    Select the variant you want, then Edit on its email card to change the subject and rich-text body. Changes autosave after a pause; Save commits immediately. A completely blank Variant B is unused, but every included variant needs both a meaningful subject and body. Expand Why this email below the body when notes are available.

  4. Set the destination section

    Expand Campaign settings beneath the saved campaign name. Choose Post-Call or Auto-Cadence under Campaign Section, then select Save section. The heading shows the saved destination and marks unsaved changes. Apply stays unavailable until you save. Changing this setting does not move or change existing campaign templates. Campaign Section and Variants per Step support keyboard selection: Focus the dropdown and press Up or Down to open it. If a search field appears, type to narrow the choices, then press Up or Down to enter the options. Use Up/Down to move, Home/End to jump to the first/last option, and Enter or Space to choose. Escape closes the menu without changing the value and returns focus to its button. Tab closes it and moves on. Reopening clears the search.

  5. Open the campaign picker

    Select Apply to Post-Call or Apply to Auto-Cadence. The dialog lists eligible non-completed, non-archived campaigns with checkboxes. Select one or several campaigns, or use Select all campaigns. The counter shows how many are selected.

  6. Apply to the selected campaigns

    Select Apply to N campaigns. SalesHive applies the reviewed sequence to every selected campaign and shows progress. Each success replaces only the saved destination section in that campaign. Blank unused Variant B slots are omitted.

  7. Retry partial failures

    If some campaigns fail, successful campaigns stay applied and failed campaigns remain selected. Review the message, then retry the remaining selection without reselecting it.

  8. Export or maintain manual steps

    Google Doc and PDF exports omit blank unused Variant B slots. In a saved manual campaign, Add email step appends through the ten-step maximum. Remove deletes that step's variants and renumbers later steps without changing a live campaign until Apply.

If the page says the connection ended before the result arrived, the draft may still finish saving. The page checks saved copies once, but the draft might not be ready yet. Refresh the page and check Saved Campaigns before generating again. A connection warning does not confirm that generation failed. Review any saved result before applying it.
