  • Actions > Send them an eBook, update their information or even send your automated email campaigns.

Adding notes

By selecting the notes function, you or your team members can leave helpful notes at each step of the automation funnel. This can be really helpful, to remind you of the step information, or simply adding instructions for your team to complete. Write it, save it, pin it.

Analytics

Watch in real time how your automations are going, track open rates, who clicked what and how many people have completed your automation.

Setting goals

Setting goals will help you gauge if your automation is successful. When a subscriber reaches your specific goal Sendly considers that as a win and registers it as a goal in your analytics dashboard. Once the user has reached your set goal, they will be removed from that automation.
