How to add CC and BCC to campaign emails in FirstSales

Add CC and BCC addresses that are copied on every email a campaign sends.

4 min read·Beginner·6 steps
  1. 1

    Open the Email Scheduler → Recipients tab

    In the campaign builder, click the Email Scheduler step, then the Recipients tab. Two chip inputs live here: CC Addresses and BCC Addresses.

    Open the Email Scheduler → Recipients tab
  2. 2

    Add CC addresses

    Type an email into CC Addresses and press Enter or type a comma to add it as a chip. You can add up to 10 CC addresses.

  3. 3

    Add BCC addresses

    Use the same pattern in BCC Addresses, up to 5 addresses. BCC is useful for silently archiving a copy, e.g. to a CRM drop address, without recipients seeing it.

  4. 4

    Fix rejected entries

    An invalid email shows “Invalid email address”, a repeat entry shows “Already added”, and going over the cap shows a max-addresses message. At the limit, the field shows “Limit reached (N/N)”.

  5. 5

    Know it applies to every send

    CC and BCC recipients are copied on every email the campaign sends, not just the first — that includes follow-up steps.

  6. 6

    Leave blank if unused

    Both fields are optional. Leave them empty if you don't need anyone copied.

Pro tips

Hard-won shortcuts that keep warm-up on track.

1

BCC a CRM inbox to auto-log replies context

A silent copy lands in your CRM's drop address without recipients ever seeing it in the headers.

2

Keep CC tiny

Every visible CC recipient can see everyone else on the CC line — 1–2 people keeps it professional.

3

Enter, comma, or click away all add the chip

There's no separate save button for the chip itself — committing the address is instant.

4

CC/BCC ride every step

Remember they hit follow-up emails too, not just the opener — don't set a CC you only want on the first message.

Frequently asked questions

How many CC and BCC addresses can I add?

Up to 10 CC addresses and up to 5 BCC addresses.

Do CC/BCC apply to follow-up emails too?

Yes — they're copied on every email the campaign sends, including all follow-up steps.

Why won't my address add?

It's either an invalid email format, a duplicate you already added, or the field is already at its limit.

Is CC/BCC required?

No — both fields are optional and can be left empty.

Can recipients see the BCC list?

No — that's the point of BCC. Recipients never see who else was blind-copied.

How do I remove an address?

Click the x on its chip in the CC Addresses or BCC Addresses field.
