Marketing Automation

Emails that send
themselves, on time.

Set up welcome series, drip campaigns and re-engagement flows once. Flashmail sends each email when a subscriber takes an action or reaches a date.

Welcome series · Drip campaigns · Re-engagement · Birthdays

A welcome automation: when someone subscribes, wait one day, send a welcome email, then branch on whether it was opened.

Triggered by actions

Flows start when subscribers join, get a tag or reach a date.

Waits from minutes to weeks

Space out each step the way you want.

Pause any time

Workflows can be paused and activated again.

Triggers

Start a flow when
something happens.

A workflow can start when someone subscribes or unsubscribes, gets or loses a tag, reaches a date such as a birthday or an appointment, changes a contact field, leaves a cart behind, or when your app calls the API. Weekly and monthly recurring sends are built in too.

Joins a listWelcome new subscribers the moment they sign up.
Date-basedBirthdays, a date on the contact such as an appointment, or days after signup.
Tags and contact dataStart when a tag is added or removed, or a contact field changes.

Journeys

Wait, check,
then send the right email.

Combine emails, waits and if/else conditions into one journey. Branch on attributes, tags or activity, so each subscriber gets the next step that fits them.
