Email Recs

Before you start!

Make sure that you have made the initial integration on the webshop so that Clerk.io is synced with your product catalog and order history.

1. Create an Email Design #

The first thing you have to do is create a Design for your emails. You can create as many different designs as you want and each Design can be used across many different recommendations blocks.

1. In my.clerk.io backend, head to the menu on the left hand side. Click Email -> Designs.

Sync Data

Audience can be setup to automatically sync a group of customers to Apsis so your lists are always up to date.

You only have to setup the sync once, and then Apsis will be kept updated with the Audiences you have chosen, even as they change from day to day.

Clerk never pushes new email addresses to Active Campaign. We update existing contacts and lists, based on email addresses already in the platform.

1.1 Start by logging in to your Apsis backend and go to Konto
