My team exclusively uses our own HTML or custom templates. We only start from scratch. We’ve also found (and reported) many of the AI-driven insights to be unnecessarily inflammatory and alarmist. Alerts such as “critical changes needed” when the insight isn’t even truthful, are also slowing us down from completing our work.The AI tools are so prominent and dominant that it’s actually a hinderance to getting our work done now. Any way to opt out, rearrange, or disable the things we don’t use?  

Welcome to Week 3 of the Active Intelligence Challenge! 🚀Week 3 is here, and it’s time to stop sending to the same old segments just because they’re already there. Most marketers use the same lists because building new ones is time-consuming, but this week, you’re letting Active Intelligence do the heavy lifting. Your task this week: Use Active Intelligence to uncover a "hidden" audience in your list that you haven’t targeted yet. One prompt, one fresh audience, zero manual digging. Here is your prompt to run in Active Intelligence:Copy and paste this directly into the tool:"Look at my contact list and suggest a segment I haven't targeted yet that might respond well to a re-engagement or nurture campaign."To get even more specific, try adding:"Focus on contacts who haven't opened in 60 days" or "Look at contacts tagged as [your tag] but never purchased."Or, skip the typing and use this quick-start prompt instead:“Help me segment my audience for my next campaign based on engagement pat

Hello!I’m trying to create an automation that sends emails X, Y and Z HOURS before a webinar date and time stored in a Date Time Custom Field, and looks like ActiveCampaign only supports sending X DAYS before, but not hours.Is this correct or I’m I missing something? And is there a workaround if a want to send emails 1 hour, 8 hours and 16 hours before a date and time stored in a Date Time Custom Field?Thanks,Ángel.-

Happy Thursday, Community!On Tuesday, we talked about Relevance over Recurrence—the idea that what you say and who you say it to matters far more than just sending because it’s Tuesday.But even the most relevant message can get lost if it hits the inbox at the wrong time. Today’s tip is about closing that gap using Predictive Sending. The Tip: Let Data Dictate the DoorwayWhile you are busy focusing on the strategy and the “Human-in-the-Loop” moments, you can let technology handle the logistical “when.” Predictive sending isn’t just a scheduling tool; it’s a way to honor your customer’s habits.Instead of choosing a “best time to send” based on a generic global study, use the data living in your account to send messages based on individual engagement patterns.Why this matters for your strategy:The “Top of Inbox” Advantage: If a customer typically checks their email at 7:00 PM after work, your relevant strategy shouldn’t arrive at 9:00 AM and get buried under 50 other emails. Respecting t

HiI’ve recently setup WhatsApp via Active Campaign, using a rented UK mobile number from Twilio. All approved and setup in WhatsApp business manager. I’ve set the display name, however when I start new conversations they come from my mobile number number, not from my display name?Any suggestions?

 If you've used Active Intelligence before, maybe it was just to write an email. But if you are just asking one question and closing the tab, you might be missing out on its true power. Active Intelligence isn't a basic prompt-and-response tool—it is built to be your strategic marketing advisor.  Using Active Intelligence as a strategic advisor, what have you been able to accomplish?

 Great job, Session 2!You just built your first segments, campaign, and personalization flow in Active Intelligence - nice work. Here’s what to do next and a few resources to keep the momentum going before Session 3. 📌 Your One Action This WeekTake one thing you built in Session 2 and refine it:your segment your campaign your CTA or your formIf you want an easy place to start, I’d recommend tightening one segment and then updating the campaign prompt to match it.💬 Share what you builtWhat audience did you segment?

I have created an idea Where my request is to have the possibility of add a contact to more then one account. This is lacking in AC and available in every CRM system.​​​​​​ 

Hey,I'm trying to extract contact usage and email usage that's available on the admin dashboard, to create an automation using API calls (check screenshot #2). For contact usage, I'm able to gather the data I need. But for email usage/credits/limits, I've tried using API v1, since apparently this information isn't available anywhere else, but even when using an Admin API key, I don't receive the "credits" available on the account (check screenshot #1 and the response I got from the call). While checking the API Key we are using, we made sure that the user is an Admin, that is added to the group "Admin", as instructed in the API docs.Our definition of email usage is: All emails sent in the current billing cycle (including Campaigns + automation sends) Also, we do have multiple accounts we intend to extract the email/contact usage to properly manage subscription upgrades and downgrades. We need to monitor throughout the cycle how much we have used and what's available in each account so

Happy Tuesday, Community! We’ve all heard that "consistency is king." For years, the gold standard has been the weekly newsletter, sent rain or shine, because "that’s what we always do."But here is the strategic hard truth: A consistent schedule doesn't guarantee a consistent connection.If you are sending a message just because the calendar says so, you aren’t building a relationship; you’re just creating a routine. Today, the real competitive advantage is moving from Calendar-Based Sends to Value-Based Sends. The Strategy: Audit the "Why" Before the "When"Instead of starting with the clock, start with the customer's journey. Strategic relevance is about moving away from "shouting into the crowd" and toward "answering the call."The shift looks like this: Focus on Intent: Stop asking "When should I send?" and start asking "What is the next logical step for my customer?" Respect the Inbox: Every time you send an email, you are spending "trust capital." Ensure the value they get out of

Welcome to Week 2 of the Active Intelligence Challenge! 🏆Week 2 is here, and this task is a "Quick Win" you’ll likely use every single week from now on. The goal? Never starting with a blank subject line box again.Your task this week: Use Active Intelligence to brainstorm five subject line variations for your next send. Pick the one that fits, mix and match, or use the best parts of each—just don’t start from zero! Here is your prompt to run in Active Intelligence:"Write 5 subject line variations for an email about [your topic]. My audience is [describe them]. The goal of the email is [open, click, reply, etc.]." What you’ll walk away with:Five distinct options covering different tones and angles (e.g., curiosity vs. direct benefit). A 3-minute workflow that gives you a faster starting point for every email you write moving forward. Get credit for completing Week 2:Once you’ve generated your results, come back here and reply with a copy/paste of your Active Intelligence output. ⚡Don’t

Happy Thursday, Community!On Tuesday, we talked about the power of the Human-in-the-Loop system; using automations to tell you exactly when a customer needs a person, not a prompt. Today, we’re looking at the tactical "secret sauce" to make those human moments seamless. The Tip: Move beyond "You have a new lead" alerts and build a Context Brief into your Internal Notifications.When you trigger an internal notification to yourself or your sales team, don't just send a name and an email. Use Personalization Tags to pull in the data your "Strategic Scout" (Active Intelligence) has been tracking. What to include in your "Smart Alert":Instead of a blank email, set your notification to include: The Intent Trigger: "This person just visited the [Product Name] pricing page 3 times." The Recent Win: "They just completed the [Course Name] onboarding." The Last Touch: "Their last opened email was [Subject Line] on [Date]."  Why this is a "Quick Win": Zero Research Time: You (or your team) don
