Best way to organize multiple automations without overlap?

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a setup with multiple automations running at the same time (lead nurturing, onboarding, and re-engagement), and I’m finding it a bit tricky to keep things organized without contacts jumping between flows unexpectedly.

I’ve been using naming conventions and folders, but as things scale it still gets messy. In some of my funnel work (including a small project I’m involved with called Funnelsflex), clarity and structure make a big difference, so I’m trying to apply the same thinking inside ActiveCampaign.

How do you usually structure automations to keep them clean and easy to manage over time? Any best practices you’ve found helpful would be appreciated.

Well first of all it requires a good tag structure, maybe a tag which you add when the start automation A end at the end remove it. Besides that you can add to each automation that it can’t when the contact is still in automation B, by adding segments.
