This article is for in-house users set up as admins, and goes over how to create an announcement to share with your CrikSales portal users.
You can use CrikSales' Announcements feature to announce product launches, communicate important information, exclusive releases, share links, and so much more!
Note that announcements circulate in rotation. This means that your saved announcements (with no end date and marked as "Active"). will be displayed alternatively in the announcements banner at the top of the CrikSales portal.
Step 1: Go to Announcements
Go to the Tools tab and click 'Announcements'.
Step 2: Add Your Announcement
Click on the 'Add New Announcement' button.
You can also edit an existing Announcement by clicking on 'Change'.
Step 3: Create Your Announcement
Set your beginning and end date. This will determine the date ranges during which your announcement will circulate in CrikSales. Check the 'Active' checkbox to configure the announcement as active.
Enter your announcement text and make sure to click on 'Save Announcement'.
If you want to include a link to a url in your announcement, enter the url in the 'URL for more info' textbox. Then, enter the text you want to use for the url. Enter the text preceding the url text in the Announcement textbox.
Make sure to click on 'Save Announcement'!
Optional: You can preview your announcement by clicking on 'Test it'.
