Solved: Automated Series - Send Followups to Recipients Wh... - Constant Contact Community

MaryR328 · ‎03-29-2021

Hi! I am just getting acquainted with automated series, which I thought I would be able to use to manage a survey I am distributing. But I am hitting some roadblocks and need help. My situation is: I have two lists to which I am distributing the survey invitation. The campaign includes a link to the survey. After five days, I want to send a reminder to recipients who DID NOT CLICK on the survey link in the original campaign.

I don't see a way to set this up. My first step in creating the series is to select the trigger and none of the options are what I need, as far as I can tell, because "Do Not Click a Link" is not an option, only opening an email and clicking a link.

Many thanks for your help!
