About This Automation

Member communication at religious organisations requires manually identifying segments, extracting contact lists, drafting messages, and uploading to multiple platforms. This fragmented workflow consumes significant staff time and creates duplicate work across email and SMS channels.

Automation consolidates segmentation, message generation, and multi-channel delivery into a unified process. Engagement data flows automatically back into member records, eliminating manual logging and providing real-time visibility into outreach effectiveness.

Key features
Automatically identify and segment members by attendance history, membership tier, and event interest
Generate personalised message templates that match your organisation's tone and include event details
Deliver campaigns simultaneously across email and SMS from a single workflow
Track opens, clicks, delivery status, and member replies across all channels in real time
Log all engagement metrics and interactions directly into member records without manual entry

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Member Event Created or Milestone Reachedtrigger

The automation is triggered when a new event is created in the calendar or a member reaches an engagement milestone (e.g. 60 days without attendance).

2. Fetch Member Segment

The automation queries to retrieve the list of members matching the event criteria or milestone, including email, phone, and engagement history.

3. Reviews and Personalises Message

The automation reviews the event or milestone details and generates a personalised message template, including subject line and body text, ready for review.

4. Send Email

The automation sends the email campaign to the member segment, logging the send timestamp and recipient list.

5. Send SMS

The automation sends an SMS reminder to members with valid phone numbers, using the same message content adapted for SMS length.

6. Log Engagement

The automation records the outreach event (email sent, SMS sent, timestamp, recipient count) as a contact activity.

7. Post Confirmation

The automation sends a summary message confirming the outreach has been sent, including recipient count and timestamp.
