 how to set up Mailchimp automation emails. One of the best ways you can communicate with your email list is with automation emails. These emails are a series to be sent to your subscribers as they join your email list or perhaps purchase a product. Mailchimp does a great job of making it easy to set up.

Comment on the video from YouTube :

Love your material!  I want to ask you a question about automations.        I created a landing page using the free version of mailchimp.  I chose a template that has a product to purchase.  I completed personalizing my template and connected the product to square.  Following the next prompts there is a follow up automation that looks like a welcome email if the page was a squeeze page only.  How to I guaranteed that if the person makes a purchase I send the appropriate email and they don't get a welcome email.

I ask because free accounts do not get access to tech support. And that the clarity of the free version of mailchimp is... Not what I'd like.  I guess that comes with paying for it.

Any info you might have to guide me would be greatly appreciated.

With the landing page, I believe you can set the "thank you/welcome message" to an off-site URL such as your website. That seems to me, the better choice. Also, be sure to add a tag so you know who in your audience made a purchase.
