Onboarding work is easy to defer when it has no time reserved on your calendar.
- Reserve time for onboarding work as signups arrive.
- Use one repeatable scheduling instruction.
- Include available subscriber context in the event details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Mailchimp and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, then New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to create an onboarding block using the timing and duration you specify, and include available subscriber context.
- 4Pick the Mailchimp Subscribe trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real subscriber example.
Questions about this workflow
Can the event use a fixed time and duration?
Yes. Include the time and duration in your instruction. Notis needs a valid start and end time to create the event.
Can I include subscriber details?
Ask Notis to include the details available from the trigger. Missing profile information cannot be added unless you provide it.
