Workflow Automations

Workflows are powerfully-simple email automations. With Workflows, you can send the right message to the right person at the right time.


Benefits of Workflows

  • Automate Repetitive Tasks: Eliminate manual email sending by setting up workflows that handle subscriber communication automatically.

  • Enhance Subscriber Engagement: Use segmentation and personalized content to foster better relationships with your audience.

  • Save Time and Increase ROI: Focus on strategy while your workflows run in the background, ensuring continuous engagement.

Key Components of Workflows

  • Steps: Building blocks of workflows, such as sending an email or applying a tag.

  • Starters: Conditions that initiate the workflow for a subscriber.

  • Statuses: Lifecycle states of your workflows (e.g., Draft, On, Off).


Workflows and tags are specific to each list. A tag applied to a subscriber on one list exists only on that list. It will not appear when viewing the subscriber on another list, cannot trigger a workflow on another list, and cannot be used to segment subscribers on other lists. If your goal is to use tags for automation, segmentation, or targeting, maintaining all subscribers in one list is the recommended approach. This allows tags to work across your entire subscriber base without cross-list limitations."
