When Should I Use Automation Workflows To Send Emails?

Automations should be used when you want to have an action occur based on an event regardless of the day or time.

Updated over a year ago

There are two ways to send emails to your list in FEA Create: through automations or single broadcast emails. In this article, we'll go over the steps for each method.

Method 1: Automations

Step 1: Set up the workflow and trigger

To get started with automations, create a new workflow by navigating to Automation > Create Workflow. Select "Start from scratch" and create a new workflow. Set your trigger, which can be a contact tag, a form submission, order form submission, membership new sign up, or product access granted. Add filters to specify which product or form to use. Make sure you save the trigger and click Save to publish the workflow.

Step 2: Add emails and content

Once you've set up your trigger for the automation, you can start adding your emails and content. First, assign it to yourself so you can use it to add your signature. Add a tag to organize your subscribers, then send them an email by adding your name, email, subject, and message information. You can use templates, add images, calendar links, membership content details, and attachments. You can also use HTML links for your freebie. Customize your email's color and contents using the styling options available.

Step 3: Test and publish

Send a test email to yourself and make sure you click Save Actions and hit Publish to turn on the automation. If you want to send multiple emails, you can add a delay before the next step in the email.

Method 2: Single Broadcast Emails

Step 1: Navigate to Broadcasts

To send a single broadcast email, navigate to Broadcasts > Create Broadcast.

Step 2: Add emails and content

Add your email subject, sender name, sender email, and message information. You can use templates, add images, links, and attachments. Customize your email's design and content using the styling options available.

Step 3: Test and send

Send a test email to yourself and make sure you preview the email to check for any errors. Once you're satisfied with your email, click Send to deliver it to your subscribers.

By following these steps, you can easily send emails to your list using FEA Create. Whether you're using automations or single broadcast emails, FEA Create offers flexible and customizable options to help you reach your subscribers.
