How do I build a Journey?
Journeys are the structure to sequence multiple campaign messages.
For example, let’s say you want to send an initial message to your members about a new product, and then you want to send a second email a few days later depending on certain conditions.
Create Journey Campaigns
To get started with Journeys, you’ll want to create your Journey campaigns.
We recommend following the steps to create a campaign and just make sure to select Is part of a Journey.
Once you have your Journey Campaigns created, you’re ready to create a Journey!

On the Campaigns page, click the + and click Journey
- Enter a name for the journey and add a description so you can recall the journey’s purpose
- On the Campaign Details page, under Segment, click Add Segment and then click Select next to the Segment you’d like to send this Journey
