Nice place ya got here …
Im Sparks, brand new to this level of email marketing. I am building a site and seem to be at a place where I need to take care of the trickle of lead conversions from the increased traffic of late. It seems to be a next step, but one I know very little to nothing about
To say Im a tad overwhelmed is an understatement. So I will start reading when time permits and try not to ask questions which are too stupid.
But I do have one question … after watching
Automation Start Triggers; An extremely helpful video
Kelly came down to the last trigger which was no trigger. So how do I manually trigger? The video used the words, “put the segment or list in” to start, but I do not know what that means and I can not find anything in my searches.
Welcome! Happy you’re here. This is exactly the kind of post this community is meant for.
So, “no trigger” automations can actually be started two ways:
Manually - You search for the users you want to add and then use the Bulk Editor to add them to the automation. Here’s a quick video showing how to access the Advanced Search feature and drop contacts into an automation with the bulk edit.
Started by another automation - There is a “Start other automation” action that you can drop into an automation so that one workflow triggers another.
Let me know if you have any questions about this.
