Step 1:  Select which platform type you want to use

  • Blueprint OMS Marketing Automation: You will then be asked to provide an unsubscribe success page. If a patient clicks the unsubscribe link in a marketing email, it will direct them to this URL. If you do not have your own unsubscribe success page, then leave this field blank to use the Blueprint default.

Step 2: How should emails be sent to recipients?

  • Blueprint OMS will send emails automatically (every morning)
  • I will send emails manually within Blueprint OMS. This option will create a list under the marketing automated campaigns (email) tab so you can check the list and then click send email. (See: campaigns for more information)

Step 3: Set up your unsubscribed website address

If the patient clicks the unsubscribe link in a marketing email, what full website address (with http:// or https://) would you like the unsubscribe redirected to? If left blank, a default unsubscribe success page is used.

Step 4: Set the sending email address 

 This is the email address used to send the marketing automation emails.
