Engagement program- Trigger email based on inactivity-Add streams or use a smart campain

Hello,

I'm trying to set a nurture program using the following logic:

If the lead doesn't open email 1 in past 10 days we resend the same email ( cloned version of email 1- named: 01b. Email.)

Currently I set it up adding and additional Stream-Stream 2 with "Transition Rule= Email is Delivered in past 10 days(trigger)" and "Not Opened Email in past 10 days" and is Member of Engagement Program is this program and is not in Stream 2.

Flow Steps-Add to Stream 2.

I also want to make sure they don't receive Email 2 unless they opened email 1 first, that's the reason I though using streams will allow them to flow to a stream right away and be removed from the first Stream.

Cadence for Stream 1 is every 10 days.

See attachment ( please ignore Stream 3)

Is this the right way to set it up?

Thanks,

Carla

Carla,

I would start using nested default programs in your stream rather than single emails. This gives you MUCH more flexibility on what to send and how to send it.

Within the nested program, create a smart campaign. In the flow step have a conditional email send flow step. If they haven't opened email 1, send email 1, if they have, send email 2.

Hope this helps

No problem! using programs rather than emails opens up so many other possibilities such as:

  • Cadence changes (put wait steps in your flow actions so you can send emails out at different times)
  • better reporting. See which programs within a nurture are brining the most success.
  • do other things besides send out an email (ex. webhooks)

Carla, do you mind marking my response as "correct"? Thanks!
