In this article, you will learn how to subscribe a contact to a campaign when importing a contact list in systeme.io.
What you will need:
A campaign already created in systeme.io
A CSV file containing the contact list to be imported
This feature allows you to quickly integrate multiple contacts while automatically subscribing them to a campaign, in order to trigger your email sequences without any additional action.
1. Prepare the import of your contact file
To get started, log in to your systeme.io account, then follow this path: CRM → Contacts → Import contacts.
This will take you to the page that allows you to import your contact list.
2. Choose the campaign
After uploading your CSV file, click Next to proceed to the tag assignment step. Once done, click Next again, then open the Subscribe to existing campaign (1) dropdown menu and select the email campaign to which you want to subscribe your contacts (2).
This step is important, as it automatically subscribes all imported contacts to the chosen email sequence.
3. Choose the column type
Your import file must contain a column with the contacts' email addresses. During the import, be sure to select and map this column to the Email (3) field.
This step is essential so that systeme.io can correctly identify each contact and add them to your list.
You must also map the following two additional fields:
Campaign step number: This corresponds to the position of the contact in the email sequence (useful if the contact has already started the campaign on another system).
Number of the last sent email: Select the Select last sent email number column (4) option to indicate up to which email the contact has already received.
This information allows the campaign to resume correctly without resending emails that have already been received.
Date of the campaign step: this field corresponds to the date the contact received their last email in the campaign.
Select the Select last sent email date column (5) option.
This information allows systeme.io to resume the sequence at the right time and respect the delays between emails.
Once all the information is filled in and the columns are correctly mapped, click on the Import (6) button to start importing your contacts.
Your contacts will then be added and automatically subscribed to the selected campaign.
Importing contacts with a campaign subscription is a simple and effective way to quickly start your email sequences on systeme.io.
By correctly mapping the columns (email, campaign step, date of the last sent email), you ensure that each contact resumes the campaign at the right time, without receiving duplicates.
Once the import is complete, your contacts are automatically integrated into your campaign, allowing you to save time and easily automate your communication.
