I’m sure this is a crazy stupid question BUT…I have set up this great campaign in the Campaign Builder, attached all my leads to a list, created all my emails, assets etc and now…I’m stuck at the final hurdle.  
  
How do I actually send or start or launch the campaign to get the first email out to start it all rolling.  
  
(Feeling a but stupid right now…!)  
  
Thanks Community!

If your campaign starts with list then add a lead to that lead and campaign starts. You can also manually add a lead to campaign by going to leads page and add it to particular campaign like below.

![]()

Campaigns start on their own. Make sure your crown jobs are running.
