1. How to create a campaign
To access the email automation tool, click on "Marketing > Email"
First, you can click on "Create a campaign".
Here you will need to enter the name of the campaign (for internal reference), the sender's email, and the sender's name.
Then you will be able to select the list of recipients.
To do so, you can use the filters. The filter feature uses the same filters as the attendee list.
The Customer marketing opt-in is automatically set to "yes"
This complies with GDPR rules. If you desire to send a communication about an event, that does not require GDPR compliance, you can unselect the filter
In the next step, you will need to select the trigger of the email (When it will be sent)
Here you have the choice to select a precise date and time
or a specific trigger such as
the start of the activity
the scan-in time
the ticket purchase
You need to select if you want the email to be sent before or after the trigger (in weeks, days or hours)
That's it, you have now created your campaign, now you will need to design and create the email
