Make Slack Announcements Fun and Easy with Thena’s Broadcasts

What’s Thena’s broadcast?

Thena’s broadcast feature is like your trusty megaphone in Slack. You can broadcast messages to specific people, teams, or whole channels without needing folks to leave Slack. From big product launches to gentle reminders about that upcoming meeting, broadcast makes sure everyone’s in the loop right where they work every day.

How to get started with Thena’s broadcast

Here’s a quick guide on creating and sending your first broadcast in Thena:

1. Set up a broadcast
   • Pick a template: Thena’s got you covered with ready-made templates—whether it’s a new feature release, an important update, or an outage alert. You can also start from scratch for something totally custom.
   • Write your message: You have all the formatting tools you need to make it look sharp—headers, bullet points, even code blocks if you’re getting technical. Create a message that’s easy to read and gets your point across.
   • Preview it in Slack: Not sure how it’ll look? Preview it directly in Slack so you know it’s perfect before you hit send.
2. Send or schedule your broadcast
   • Select your audience: Whether it’s a whole department or a few specific channels, you can choose exactly who sees your message.
   • Send now or schedule for later: Got an urgent message? Send it instantly. Planning for a big update? Schedule it for the best time to get everyone’s attention.
   • Unsend and cancel options: Realize you need to edit or pull back a message? Thena gives you control over your broadcasts, so you can unsend or cancel if needed. It’s like a safety net for your announcements.
3. Manage your audience like a pro
   • Dynamic lists: These lists update automatically based on filters you set. Perfect if your team changes frequently—no need to worry about manually keeping things updated.
   • Static lists: These lists stay as-is unless you update them yourself. Great for groups that don’t change much, like a specific project team or department.
