Automations

You don’t need to automate every little thing. Just the 1-3 campaigns that make the difference.

Podia gives you the tools to automate your email marketing in a way that’s easy, grows your business, and doesn’t sacrifice the personal touch you give your customers.

What are the most important automations for your business? These.

A few well-placed automations can save you a lot of headache — and help you give potential customers the information they need, when they need it. From the 150,000+ people who use Podia, these are the automations people use most.

Welcome Emails

Send every new subscriber a welcome email

Your welcome message is the perfect opportunity to say hello, share your story, and connect with new followers. An automatic welcome message lets you send an email to anyone who signs up, day or night, without being tied to your computer 24/7.

Product Introductions

Greet people when they join your product

Automatically send customers a message when they make a purchase. It only takes a few minutes to set up a value-packed welcome series for each of your products.

Tagging

Reach people at the exact moment they’re most likely to pay attention

Catch people when they’re interacting with your business, like clicking a link in an email, logging in to your course, or joining your affiliate program. Automations let you talk to people when they’re already engaged with you, not days or weeks later.

Automations should send emails, not create more work

Podia automations are designed to do what you need them to do, without the fuss of managing tangled-up automations that don’t actually send emails to your audience.

As you grow, there are more automation options for you to consider

Welcome automations are the number one business-grower for Podia customers. But as you grow your business, Podia Email has the tools to let you automate other things too.

Customized campaigns

Build campaigns around specific interests

Create customized messages for different groups of people based on the things they like. If you sell products about both pets and gardening, you can send the pet people automated emails about your puppy course, and the gardening fans automated emails about your flower ebook.

Targeted promotions & offers

Send exclusive coupons and promotions

Share a discount code with anyone who bought your ebook last month but hasn’t joined your course yet. Or a special deal with community members who click a link in your welcome email. Podia has built-in filtering, tags, and segmentation so you can send promos to the right people.

With Podia, your automations are already connected to everything else
