ClickFunnels Workflows

By /

Workflows in ClickFunnels are sequences of actions that occur when an action is performed by a user.

When someone joins your email list by opting in, the Workflow that you created will send them an automated email.

Workflows may also be complex. If someone opens an email, the next email sent or action performed can be determined by that.
