Set up a welcome automation

Send a welcome email to every new subscriber — automatically.

1. Create the welcome email first in Email Templates.
2. Go to Automations → New automation.
3. Click the green Trigger box and choose Contact subscribed (or Added to list and pick your list).
4. Drag Send email from the left onto the canvas. Connect the dot on the right of the trigger to the dot on the left of the new step.
5. Click the step and choose your template, subject and sender email.
6. Optional: add Wait 2 days and a second email, or a Condition such as "opened the previous email".
7. Click Activate.

Each contact goes through the workflow once. If someone unsubscribes, they leave the workflow before any further email. See every run in History.
