1. Initial Setup

A pop-up will appear, prompting you for the core properties of your sequence:
  • Name: An internal name for your sequence (e.g., “Post-Purchase Follow-up”).
  • Choose a Sender: Select the default “From” email address for this sequence.
  • Choose a List (Optional): This is a powerful auto-enrollment trigger. If you select a list here, any contact who is added to this list will automatically be enrolled in this sequence.

2. Designing the Flow (Adding Nodes)

You will now see a visual canvas where you can build out the steps (or “nodes”) of your sequence. A node is a combination of an email template and a time delay.The Sequence Builder canvas.
  • Add a Node: Click the “Add Next Sequence” button.
  • Select Template: In the pop-up, choose the email template for this step from the dropdown. You should create your templates beforehand in the Templates section.
  • Set Delay: Enter the number of days to wait before sending this email.
    • For the first step, a delay of 0 sends the email immediately after a contact is enrolled.
    • For all subsequent steps, the delay is calculated from when the previous email was sent.
Continue adding nodes until your entire email journey is mapped out on the canvas.
