The first step in creating an email campaign is selecting your audience — the group of contacts who will receive the email. ## Getting Started From your Comify dashboard, navigate to **Campaigns** and click **Create Campaign**. Campaign list You'll land on the Audience step. Click **Upload CSV** or **Select existing** to attach your audience. Audience step ## Attaching an Audience Upload a new CSV file with your contacts. Rows are validated before the campaign launches. Each column in your CSV becomes an available field for variable mapping later. Pick from a previously uploaded audience list. New uploads appear as "pending" until processing completes. ### Selecting an Existing List Click **Select existing** to open the audience picker. You'll see all your campaign audience lists with their contact counts, email counts, status, and last updated time. Audience picker Click **Select** next to the list you want to use. ## After Attaching an Audience Once an audience is attached, Comify shows a summary of the list: Audience selected | Field | Description | | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Total Audience** | Total number of contacts in the list | | **Sendable** | Contacts with a valid email address who will receive the campaign | | **Excluded** | Contacts skipped due to missing email, unsubscribes, or suppression | Below the summary you'll see the **Available fields** from your CSV (e.g. name, email, phone, company, discount) — these are the columns you can map to template variables in the next step. A sample of the first few rows is shown so you can verify the data looks correct before proceeding. Contacts without a valid email address are automatically excluded from campaign sends. ## Next Step Once your audience is attached and the sendable count looks right, click **Continue** to move to the [Content](/campaigns/content) step.
