Throttler

OVERVIEW

The Throttler tool allows you to send smaller batches spaced out into your campaigns. This could be useful if there are manual steps in your CRM, if you want to avoid throttling issues with providers like Google, or if you want to test and track deliverability of your campaign/automations at different times of the day.
