Set up email sequences (drip campaigns)

Build multi-step sequences with waits, conditions, and branching to nurture contacts over time.

A sequence is a series of messages that go out automatically over time. Use one to onboard new contacts, nurture leads, or follow up after a purchase.

Choose a trigger

Open Sequences and create a new one. The trigger decides who gets enrolled, for example:

  • Manual enrollment, you add contacts yourself
  • Form submission, when someone submits a specific form
  • Tag added to a contact
  • Deal won or deal stage changed
  • Booking created, invoice paid, event registration, course enrollment, or product purchased

Add steps

Build the flow step by step:

  • Send Email or Send SMS, the messages contacts receive
  • Wait, pause for minutes, hours, days, or weeks between steps
  • Condition, only continue if a contact meets a rule
  • If/Else Branch, split the path based on what a contact has done
  • Goal, end the sequence when a contact reaches an outcome (like getting a tag)

Branching lets you send different messages to different people, so the sequence feels personal. Turn it on when you're ready and track enrollments from the sequence page.
