Email Marketing Lingo

What does "campaign" mean?
What's an email campaign? It's actually just a one off email you send to customers

In email marketing, a "campaign" is a one-off email; it's a single, standalone email. This is not to be confused with an with an email "flow" (see below).

What does "flow" mean?
A flow is also known as a drip campaign

An email "flow," also known as a "workflow" or "drip campaign," is a series of automated emails that are triggered to send based on a person's behavior. It can be as short as 1 email, or it could be infinite. It all depends on what you want your customer journey to look like.

The names of email flows are usually self-descriptive. For example, a "welcome series" flow is a series of introductory emails to greet your list for the first time.

What does "list" mean?
What's an email list?

Every person who signs up to receive your emails is automatically put onto a list. The people on the lists are also known as "prospects" or "leads." These lists are stored in your (or our) email service provider, and they contain the the information each user provided, or the behavior they exhibited, upon signing up.

What is "segmenting"?
How do you segment audiences?

"Segmentation" or "segmenting" is the organization of your email lists into custom categories. These categories are usually based on a user's behavior.

For example, you can send a repeat campaign to the cohort of people who clicked your last email but didn't purchase. There's a higher likelihood that this segment of people are interested in making a purchase.

What does "blast" mean?
A blast is sending off a one-off email to a large number of people in the list

We refer "blast" as the action of sending a one-off email to a large list at once.
