The Skip Holidays feature allows you to automatically pause campaign sending on public holidays. This helps ensure your emails are not sent when prospects are out of office or less likely to engage.
You can choose from built-in country holiday calendars or create your own custom holiday calendar based on your business needs.
Why Use Skip Holidays?
Sending emails on public holidays can often result in:
Lower open rates
Lower reply rates
Delayed responses
Reduced campaign performance
By automatically skipping holidays, your campaigns can continue sending on more appropriate business days.
