Pausing & Resuming Campaigns

2 min readUpdated 2026-07-13

Key Takeaway

Pausing a campaign stops new outreach while preserving all lead data and statistics; resuming picks up where it left off without re-contacting leads already in the pipeline. Completed campaigns are final and cannot be resumed.

Pausing a Campaign

You can pause any active campaign from its detail page. Open the campaign from the goal it belongs to on the Goals page. When paused:

  • No new outreach emails are sent
  • Your agent still monitors for replies to previously sent emails
  • Lead data and campaign statistics are preserved
  • The campaign timer continues (counts toward total duration)

Resuming a Campaign

Click Resume on a paused campaign to restart outreach. Your agent picks up where it left off — it won't re-contact leads already in the pipeline.

Stopping a Campaign

To permanently end a campaign, change its status to Completed. This:

  • Stops all outreach immediately
  • Finalizes campaign statistics
  • Generates a completion report
  • Keeps all data for your records

Note: Completed campaigns cannot be resumed. To restart similar outreach, use the Draft outreach campaign quick action on the goal's detail page, or ask your agent in chat.
