For your autoresponder to work, it must be linked to a mailing list. This connection ensures that every new contact collected via your Landing Page is automatically enrolled in your email sequence - helping you engage leads instantly and consistently. This article explains how to connect, manage, and optimize the link between your autoresponder and mailing lists on Scalelup.

Seamless Communication: No manual export or import - your emails start sending right away.

Important Notes
One Autoresponder per List: Each mailing list can have only one active autoresponder at a time.
Multiple Lists: The same autoresponder can be connected to several different mailing lists.
Existing Contacts: Only new contacts added to the mailing list after the autoresponder is linked will receive the sequence. Existing subscribers will not be enrolled retroactively.
Changing or Removing Autoresponders: You can update or disconnect an autoresponder from a mailing list at any time. Previously enrolled contacts will continue to receive the emails from the autoresponder that was active at the time they signed up.
Connecting your autoresponder to a mailing list is a crucial step in automating your lead nurturing and ensuring immediate, consistent engagement with every new contact. With Scalelup, you can set up this process in minutes - allowing you to focus on growing your business while your email marketing runs on autopilot.
