In a split sendout, multiple variations of an email message are created as drafts. These variations are sent to a portion of your total recipient list so that you can identify the highest-performing version. The most successful message variation can then be sent to the remaining recipient in the group. This main sendout is either started manually or scheduled for a set date and time. You can select up to ten draft messages for a split sendout.
