Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| "Segment is empty" | Check your filter rules — dates may need adjusting |
| Campaign stuck in "Sending" | Large campaigns send in batches to avoid rate limits — be patient |
| Low delivery rate | Some contacts may have blocked you or changed numbers |
