Why this helps

Milestones get acknowledged in chat and forgotten by the next deadline.

  • Makes milestones memorable
  • Keeps celebrations consistent
  • Removes postcard preparation from your list

  • 2Create an automation named Channel milestone postcard.
  • 3Tell Notis to recognize milestone announcements, confirm the recipient and address, and send the selected postcard design.
  • 4Pick Channel Message Received as the trigger.
  • 5Choose where run reports go and test with one real milestone.
