Content Contributor Quick Start Guide

Edit in CMS

Welcome! As a content contributor, you’re focused on creating and managing newsletter content. This guide gets you from login to your first scheduled send.

1. Log in

Section titled “1. Log in”
  • Your invitation arrives by email. Add [email protected] to your contacts so your login credentials don’t land in spam.
  • At the login screen, enter your email — if you don’t have a password yet, use Forgot Password to set one. See How to Reset Your Password.
  • Letterhead requires multi-factor authentication. See Setting up MFA.

2. Know what you can access

Section titled “2. Know what you can access”

Content contributors get the content tools — see the full permissions breakdown:

  • Emails — full access to create, curate, and schedule. See Working in Emails.
  • Templates — create and edit reusable designs.
  • Curations — pull in articles via RSS feeds, API, or the browser extension. See Working in Curations.
  • Automations — set up recurring sends. See Working in Automations.
  • Dashboard and Archive — see delivery performance, and view published newsletters as readers see them.

What you can’t access: audience data (contacts, tags, segments), channel settings, team permissions, and organization-level dashboards. If you need one of those changed, ask a channel or organization administrator.
