Is it possible to transfer a subscriber at the end of a campaign to the start of another existing campaign without having them to subscribe to the new list?
If so, can anyone please tell me how; as I can’t find it in the knowledge database any help would be truly appreciated.
Hey Barry! Do you have the campaign you are trying to move the subscriber into in a different list? If so, when you try and move a subscriber into a different list it would add them as a new subscriber to that list if they aren’t already in that list.
If you have the campaign set up in the same list they are currently in, adding them into a different campaign won’t see them as a new subscriber again. You would just need that other campaign to be triggered on a different tag and apply the tag to them to get them in there.
You can move the campaign to the original list as well if you wanted to keep it running in the same list moving forward.
If you have multiple lists set up, was there a specific reason why? If you can tell us more about your current workflow, we can give you some more suggestions for your set up as well!
Hello Amanda
Thanks for answering my question, but my head is bouncing of the walls right now, talk about info overload. I’ll try and explain.
I have my main list (newsletter) with its campaign loaded with twelve weeks newsletters.
I have a squeeze page for a free PDF offer with a campaign having three follow up emails in it.
I would like the subscribers to the squeeze page, after they have received the three email campaign to start receiving the newsletter campaign without having them to subscribe to the newsletter list if possible.
Hope this makes sense.
Hey Barry! Thanks for sharing your workflow - and I definitely see some opportunity -
As a general best practice for managing subscribers and campaigns, I strongly recommend you set up both of your campaigns in the same list but trigger each one using a different tag.
This way, managing subscribers and campaigns becomes simpler and you avoid duplicating subscribers across lists.
For example, your newsletter campaign would be triggered by a specific tag that gets applied when someone signs up for your list. Triggering the campaign on a tag also allows current subscribers to receive the campaign when tagged - whereas triggering only on “On Subscribe” would restrict it to new subscribers only.
For your free PDF campaign, use a separate tag to trigger it. If you want subscribers to receive the main newsletter campaign after the PDF campaign, just add an “Apply Tag” step at the end of the PDF campaign.
This will apply the tag for the main campaign without re-adding them as new subscribers.
This setup will keep things organized and help your subscribers flow through each campaign smoothly!
