You have 3 ways to choose your target recipients:

      💡

      Note: Avoid selecting multiple channels in one broadcast. This may cause inconsistent delivery. Stick to one channel for reliable results.

  1. Assign a Name
    1. Add a clear, recognizable name to your broadcast for future reference.


3. Adjust Advanced Settings

  1. Sending Speed
    1. Decide how quickly messages are sent:

      • Safe (lower risk)
      • Fastest
      • Custom speed
      ❗ Important for Non-WABA Users:
      • Only broadcast to contacts with whom you have chat history.
      • Keep sending speed at Slow/Normal to avoid bans.
  1. Broadcast Hours

  1. Simulate Human Behavior
    1. Make broadcasts appear natural by simulating typing and marking messages as read.

  1. Cancel Following Messages on Client Response
    1. If your message flow has branches, this setting stops further messages when the recipient responds.


4. Final Review and Send

  1. Review all settings:
      • Recipients
      • Message content
      • Scheduling
      • Channel
  1. Once everything looks good, click Save & Send at the bottom-right.

By following these steps, you can efficiently send broadcasts to reach your target audience while ensuring consistency and effectiveness.
