Template Variations

Overview

This feature allows you to create and save multiple alternative templates, ensuring that when they are sent to a group, each contact receives a unique message.

For instance, within a group of ten contacts, and five variations are stored, Reach will sequentially send each variation to a contact. Once all variations have been utilized, the cycle restarts with the first variation for the sixth contact, and so on.

The upper half provides an option to edit the template version. When the template is edited, the number of characters compared to the original template will change. This helps keep track of how long the template is. If there's a (-N), it means the template got shorter by N characters. If there's a (+N), it means the template is longer by N characters.
