Project Statuses

What each project status means — from Draft through In Progress to Completed — and what to do when sending pauses.

Every project carries a status, shown as a pill on the Projects list and the project page.

StatusWhat it means
DraftCreated but not yet launched. You can still edit everything.
PreparingGetting ready to send — Rose is setting up the outreach.
In ProgressLive. Candidates are moving through the sequence.
PausedOn hold. Click Resume to carry on.
CompletedEvery candidate has received the full sequence. Rose still handles replies that arrive later, and adding new candidates resumes the project.
CancelledStopped by you. Cancelled projects sit in their own section on the list, and can be archived to hide them.

Pausing, resuming and cancelling

Use Pause and Resume on the project page to hold outreach. Cancel project stops any new outreach for good — candidates who were already contacted can still reply.

Cancelling a project after launch doesn't refund credits already used on contacted candidates. See Credits.

When sending pauses on its own

Rose pauses a project automatically if it can no longer send safely, and shows a banner explaining why:

  • The mailbox was disconnected. Sending is paused: the mailbox this campaign sends from was disconnected. Click Reconnect mailbox, then Resume. The project owner also receives an email about it.
  • No inbox is connected for email steps. Only the LinkedIn steps go out until the owner connects an inbox.

If something else stops a project from running, the reason appears in the project header so you know what to fix.
