How to request an email to go to local stakeholders
THQ Emails to Donors
- Merkle (a digital agency) handles content and deployment of all of these emails
- Their emails cover a variety of things like donating to specific programs, volunteering, holidays, etc. planned in advance with an overall marketing strategy for the year
- Once a week every Tuesday of the month (sometimes Thursdays)
- A member of the GLD digital marketing team will send a weekly update outlining which territorial emails will be sent to subscribers.
AdHoc Emails from DHQ (How to request an email to go to local stakeholders)
- Email Divisional Digital Marketing Specialist for help planning, creating and deploying local email sends
- Emails can go out on any day other than a THQ email
- DHQ submit emails to Merkle 7 business days in advance, which dictates the below timeline
- This means that DHQ needs at least one week notice to prepare the email, on top of the 7 business day Merkle requirement (in case graphics need to be made, edits, approvals from DHQ/corps)
- Essentially, you need to fill out this with email details **two and a half weeks (12 business days)** in advance
- For example, if you needed an email to go out on April 18, the form would need to be submitted by April 2 to get the email prepared and submitted to Merkle on time.
