How to build a mailing list

Build mailing lists to keep in touch with subscribers and customers. Add email addresses manually, or import an existing mailing list from a .csv file. Collect new subscribers through your site with blocks, promotional pop-ups, or a newsletter signup at checkout. Get more granular by creating multiple mailing lists for different types of subscribers, or by using segments in the Contacts panel.

How to design an email

All our campaign templates are highly customizable and designed to look great on any device. Add text, images, call-to-action buttons, or even blog posts and products directly from your site. Style your campaign to match your site's brand, or try something totally different.

Sender details tutorial

Set up sender details (previously called sender profiles) before sending your first email campaign. Your sender details are the name and email address your subscribers will see, giving them a way to contact you. Using a custom email address helps ensure your campaign makes it to subscriber inboxes.

To learn more, visit Setting up sender details.

How to create email automations

Automated campaigns send to a new subscriber when they sign up, or to a customer after they make a purchase. Automations are great way to keep subscribers engaged and make your campaigns feel more personalized.
