Campaign flows are the perfect way to send multi-message campaigns to a specific customer segment or your entire subscriber base. With Flow Builder, you can easily visualize and build your flow, add delays between messages, and schedule a start date for sending.

How Mystery Campaigns Benefit You


  • Presents a fun, potentially interactive experience that piques subscriber curiosity.
  • Encourages more clicks, engagement, and site traffic by presenting an interactive experience.

Choose the Segment


Every campaign sends to a subscriber segment. This ensures that campaign messages are only sent to those subscribers who you wish to receive these messages.

Reminder, you will need to create your desired segment before you can select it in the campaign Flow Builder.

  1. Select Messaging in the side menu of your Postscript dashboard, then select Flow Builder.
  2. Select Create Flow in the top-right corner.
  3. Under Campaign, select your Engaged Subscribers or Highly Engaged segment from the drop-down. 
    • Why engaged? Your engaged subscribers are those individuals who regularly click links and/or reply to messages. They're more likely to engage with a mystery campaign.
    • What if we want to send to everyoneGo for it! Choose the segment that makes sense for the mystery offer, your goals, and your marketing strategy. 
  4. Select Create Campaign Flow in the bottom-right corner of the page.
