If you'd like to receive an email each time someone makes a purchase, you can set this up inside Automations. This works for all products, including memberships, courses, and anything you have listed in your store.
Step 1: Create a New Workflow
Go to Automation and click Create Workflow.
Choose Start from Scratch.
Step 2: Set the Trigger
Click Add Trigger. Choose Order Submitted. Use the filter to select the specific product you would like to receive notifications for. Click Save.
Step 3: Add an Internal Notification
Click the plus (+) icon below your trigger.
Select Internal Notification.
Choose Send Email.
You can:
Use your default business name and email
Send the email to all users, one specific user, or add a secondary email
Step 4: Write Your Notification Message
Add a subject line such as: New Purchase Notification.
In the message area, you can include custom values by clicking the tag so your email shows the buyer's details.
For example:
Contact full name
Contact email address
Product purchased
This helps you instantly see what was bought and who bought it.
Step 5: Save and Publish
Click Save.
Click Publish to activate your workflow.
Once this is done, you will receive an email each time someone purchases the product you selected.
That's It
This is a lovely, simple way to stay up to date with your sales in real time.
