Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Flodesk for my weekly newsletter, as well as the waitlist, sales page, checkout, emails, etc. for my group coaching course. I love the ability to set up segments and triggers to further customize the automations which are fantastic.

Pros

  • checkouts
  • sales pages
  • automations

Cons

  • Being able select a link within Flodesk - for instance when setting up a sign up form or waitlist and wanting it to lead directly to the sales page or checkout next.
  • Improved brand kit settings where you don't have to reset the font every single time.
  • Default footer settings would be amazing!

Return on Investment

  • Flodesk has had an incredibly positive impact on my business by streamlining my email marketing, waitlists and checkouts, and therefore helped my revenue go up!
