# Recipients

In this section, you select the audience for your email campaign. You can choose from two available options:

### Static Groups

Select one of the pre-created groups of recipients from your contact database. Static groups consist of contact lists that have been manually assigned to a specific group and do not update automatically.

### Dynamic Segments

Use this option if you want to reach recipients based on specific conditions, such as creation date, event occurrence (e.g., clicking on a message), or other criteria. Dynamic segments update in real-time, ensuring your campaign always targets the most current group of contacts meeting the specified criteria.

After selecting the appropriate group or segment, click **Next** to proceed to the next stage of campaign creation.
