# Blasts

> Send one-time emails to a specific audience or contact group in Conversion.

Blast emails are one-time emails sent to a specific audience or contact group. Unlike workflow emails, blasts are not tied to a trigger or schedule, you define the audience and send (or schedule) the email manually.

Use blasts for newsletters, product announcements, event invitations, promotional campaigns, customer updates, or any communication that goes out once to a defined list.

<Note>
  Once you send out a blast, you can no longer edit or resend the blast
</Note>

## Blasts view

The blasts view shows all your blast emails with the following columns:

* **Name** — the name of the blast
* **Topic** — the marketing topic the blast is categorized under
* **Status** — the current state of the blast (e.g. draft, scheduled, sent)
* **Scheduled for** — the date and time the blast is scheduled to send, if applicable

You can customize which columns are visible using the **Columns** button in the top left.
