GETTING STARTED

Your first campaign

Add the people you need documents from, create a campaign, and review it before it starts.

1Add your clients

Your clients are the people you collect documents from. Open the Clients page and click Add Client.

In the app: Clients
GettingDocsClients
  • Name (required).
  • Phone: US numbers like (555) 123-4567 or international format +15551234567 both work. Required if your account chases on WhatsApp.
  • Email: required if your account chases by email.
  • Reference number (optional): handy for matching records.
Which of the two is mandatory follows your chase channel. We ask for the one Amy actually needs rather than both, because an email-only agency has no phone number to give.

Click Add Client to save. Repeat for everyone you want to chase in this round, they’ll be ready to pick when you build your campaign.

2Create a campaign

A campaign is a single document-collection drive: who you’re chasing, what you need, and how Amy follows up. Go to Campaigns → New Campaign and fill in:

In the app: Campaigns → New Campaign
GettingDocsCampaignsNew

Campaign name

e.g. “January Bank Statements”. Just for you.

Period / reference

Optional context Amy mentions to clients, e.g. “January 2026”.

Document types

Tick everything you need, Bank Statements, Form I-9, background checks, references and more.

Message template

Amy’s opening message. Keep the default or edit it, {client_name} and {period} fill in automatically.

Reminder schedule

How often Amy follows up and how long she waits in silence before flagging. Inherited from your account settings, daily by default.

Select clients

Tick the clients to include, or select all at once.

When everything looks right, click Create Campaign. It’s saved as a draft: nothing is sent yet.

3Review & send

Open your new campaign to review it. When you’re happy, click Start Campaign.

In the app: your campaign
GettingDocsCampaignsOctober starters

That single click sets everything in motion:

  • Amy sends the opening message to every client in the campaign, on your chase channel.
  • The campaign status switches from Draft to Active.
  • The timeline starts tracking progress automatically.
If Google Drive isn’t connected yet, Gettingdocs will prompt you here, connect it and start again. This is the only hard requirement to go live.
