What’s New in Version 5
-
Smarter Campaign Timing with AI
You can now schedule emails to send at the optimal time for each patron using AI-driven insights. Choose a 24-hour or 7-day window, and emails will be delivered when each recipient is most likely to open. -
Easier Email Preheader Editing
Preheader text is now accessible directly on the first edit screen – making it simpler than ever to add those important snippets that increase open rates. -
Repeatable Marketing Emails
Campaigns now support a “repeatable” option for marketing emails, giving you greater flexibility when patrons re-enter campaigns. -
Redesigned Landing Page Editor
The landing page editor has been updated with the same intuitive design principles as the email builder, making it easier to create polished, on-brand pages.
A Modernized Experience
Beyond new features, Version 5 introduces an updated color scheme, slider-style toggles, reorganized configuration menus, and improved navigation labels (like “Back to Patrons” and “Back to Emails”) for a more intuitive user experience.
With Version 5, Patron Point combines a cleaner design with smarter campaign tools, so you can connect with your community more effectively than ever.
