A method for creating a plurality of campaigns for simulated phishing attacks includes creating, by a campaign manager, a plurality of campaigns for simulated phishing attacks having a plurality of parameters including at least a time schedule, each of the plurality of campaigns having at least one parameter different than other campaigns of the plurality of campaigns, and identifying, by a simulation server from the database, a first campaign and a second campaign from the plurality of campaigns from which to create a first simulated phishing email to send on a first time schedule to email accounts of users of the first campaign, and a second simulated phishing email to send on a second time schedule, different than the first time schedule, to email accounts of users of the second campaign.
