    Klaviyo Visual Flow builder is a new feature that makes the process of composing the Flow much easier. Before in Klaviyo you had to use logic to build automation in it. Now you can do the same but in a visual form, so it is more user-friendly.
    In this post, I will show you this Klaviyo feature. You can watch the video below or follow the post with a short description. It’s easier for us to understand visually than to describe in words. Usually before I explain my email marketing strategy to clients I draw diagrams to show them what I will make and how it would improve their marketing.

    Build the First Flow

    1. Go to the Flows.
    2. Create the Flow and name it.

    How to Add Subscribers

    First of all, we need to define how we would add subscribers to this Flow. There are a couple of options: Subscribe to List, Join a Segment, Take an Action. Klaviyo Visual Flow Feature Overview

    Take an Action

    1. Click on Take an Action and filter out the kind of action you want to implement.
    For example, I choose Place Order action. You can find there more filters for Trigger and Flow. Klaviyo did not change those features much, but made it more visual.       2. Click Save and Done after you setup all features. Klaviyo Visual Flow Feature Overview

    1. Click Configure Content button.
    2. Choose Template, make all necessary changes and Save Content.  
    3. Now you have your email in draft mode. To change the status go to the left and switch it to Manual.
    4. Click Done.

    Conditional Split

    This component in the Visual Flow builder gives a chance to create two distinct paths in a Flow with a defined characteristics of your recipients. Here you can be as creative as you want.
    1. Drag tab with Conditional Split component.
    2. Setup all configuration in the left column.
    Conditional split in Klaviyo screenshot For example, let’s do Order Product Value – $500. In the next action there would be splitting for YES or NO. Then you can add any action for each distinct path. Let’s put different Time Delay for each – just drag the correct tab to the Flow. And add different Emails. Now we have two paths. If clients ordered products for more than $500 they will receive Email #1 and if less – Email #2. Klaviyo Visual Flow Feature Overview

    Trigger Split – new

    This component creates two distinct paths in a flow based on a different characteristic of the Flow Trigger. Klaviyo Visual Flow Feature Overview
