Why Does My Automarketer Campaign Say Idle?

If the Next Scrape time has changed, it means that it has already ran the scrape and checked for all new listings..

The Automarketer campaign will say Idle most of the time.

As long as the main label says "Active", the campaign is running correctly.

It is not designed for you to sit and watch the stats in real time.
​
​The System is designed to check Zillow daily and pull down all new listings. Then  based on the Automarketer's scheduling it will send out messages.
​
​Idle just means it is not actively scraping at the moment. It has already pulled all new listings that are currently available. It does not mean there is anything wrong with the campaign.

Please be aware that when you start a campaign in an area, that the first day, the system is designed to scrape all properties on Zillow . Each day after that, it only scrapes the brand new properties that are listed. That means that after the first day, the number of scraped listings each day will be either zero or just a handful depending on the number if new listings for that area.

In the background, all listings will be sent the series of texts in the 3 month Followup Campaign.
