Marketing Calendar with Upcoming Emails

When you have many campaigns running, it can be difficult to know which emails will be delivered on what day. I'd like to see a calendar, like that in Outlook, showing which emails will go out at what time on each day.

That will make it easier to avoid overlapping emails and spot gaps in communication.

How nice it would be to have plasma screen in the sales/marketing area that listed all of our campaigns and emails. We use a whiteboard today.

It was very high priority and is still in the works, but a few other major initiatives (like a dedicated nurture module) have taken front and center stage.  I don't have an ETA yet, but we know this is highly desireable.

Thanks for the update on 5/10 Glen! Any vague date on this yet? We're evaluation production calendar tools to purchase in our department and it would helpful to know if/when this might be available.

This would be wonderful! We have a spreadsheet that shows all of our emails and when they go out. This would be great to have set up within Marketo. Will this be able to allow us to add when campaigns are planned to go out? Sometimes (quite often) there are too many tweaks to a message so we are not able to schedule it in advance, so it would be great if this would take that into account so we can see when we plan to send stuff out, even if the campaign has not been scheduled already. And being able to run it as a report and have it sent out would be great for those like our CMO who do not have a Marketo login but wants to know what emails are planned when.

This would be great!  I was going to suggest something similiar - a dashboard that showed scheduled campaigns (batch emails).

I'm checking out the new community pages and was hoping to see that the status on the Calendar would have changed from "We like it" to "Working on it Now".  :(

Although some things like "rename anything" and calendar have been agonizingly slow in development, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.  This is a major initiative with the CEO (among many others) advocating for it.  It is always painful to do one feature and not another, something always gets defered.  

However, we hear you loud and clear and love this feature.

It won't take another 3 years, but this is on our roadmap to accomplish in a really nice way.

Lets not hold our breath here, I think I was the initial person to request this idea and it has been at least 3 years now.

Just echoing the same from this thread.  A calendar to track and plan campaigns, webinars, and other blasts is a must have.  We have offices around the globe and when our marketing team is trying to collaborate and plan future events we have a hard time visualizing what events we have planned and what email blasts we have sent previously.  We do not want to 'overblast' our lead lists.

Great example of how this could look is HootSuite's Planner/Scheduler.
