When scheduling a transactional email or campaign, you can choose to have eInsight CRM check for new guests/recipients every 10 minutes rather than daily. This ensures the sending of your message will be more timely and relevant.
Essentially, new guest data enters into your CRM every minute. This feature lets you instruct eInsight to look for those new guests and send them the relevant message(s) you've designed. You may want to use this feature for the following scenarios:
- If you have a newsletter sign-up confirmation, you can have eInsight CRM look for new registrants every 10 minutes, ensuring your 'thank you for signing up' email is sent more promptly.
- If you have a post check-in email inviting guests to a Happy Hour, you can use this new setting to ensure your messages are sent throughout the day as people check-in.

- General Rules:
- If confirmation/cancel/change: schedule is set to immediate. Make sure your end date is a crazy date into the future! Set your send time 2 - 3 minutes in the future so that you give yourself time to actually schedule the campaign.
- If pre-arrival/departure: this is typically a daily send. If your campaign has already gone out for the day, set the start date for the next day. Choose your start time based on screenshot taken earlier!
