Email Studio + Workflows.
Mailchimp + Zapier, built in.
Visual email builder. Branded templates. Scheduled broadcasts. And an automation engine that ties forms, member milestones, and tasks together — so when a visitor fills out the welcome card, the follow-up routes itself to the right pastor automatically.
For the communications director
Stop paying $79/mo for Mailchimp.
And $30/mo for Zapier.
Most churches send their weekly newsletter through Mailchimp or Constant Contact, automate follow-ups through Zapier, and live with the friction of two systems that don't know about your member directory. Volunteers get added to the "volunteer applicants" list manually. The welcome packet for new visitors is a Google Doc someone forwards manually.
TrueConnect+ Email Studio + Workflows replaces all of that. Send the weekly newsletter from the same system that knows who's a member. Trigger the welcome-packet email automatically when the welcome form is submitted. Assign the follow-up task to the connections pastor when the milestone fires. One platform. One unsubscribe link. One source of truth.
Drag, drop, send. Your church's brand on every email.
Visual builder powered by industry-standard editor tooling. Brand once with your logo, primary color, and reply-to email — every transactional and broadcast email picks it up automatically.
Templates for the things you send weekly: announcements, sermon recap, volunteer thank-you, event invite, baptism invitation, year-end giving statement. Customize per send, or save your edits as a new template.
- Visual drag-drop builder
- Brand once, applied everywhere
- Pre-built templates for common church sends
- Saved templates per campaign type
The follow-up that used to fall through the cracks now routes itself.
When a visitor fills out the welcome form, fire a workflow: send them the new-visitor packet email, assign a follow-up task to the connections pastor, add them to the "new visitor" list, and remind the pastor 7 days later if the task is still open.
Triggers: form submitted, person created, milestone reached. Actions: create task, send email, add to group, set tag, fire downstream workflow. The engine is built on durable execution — automatic retries on failure, an audit log of every run, and the assurance that a workflow that fired won't get lost between server restarts.
- Trigger on form submit / new person / milestone
- Action: create task / send email / tag / etc.
- Durable execution — survives restarts and retries automatically
- Per-run audit log
The communications stack, consolidated.
Six categories of message that used to live across three platforms. Now in one.
Broadcasts
The weekly newsletter. The major announcement. The Easter invite. Schedule the send, see opens and clicks, identify who didn't receive it (bounces handled automatically).
Targeted lists
Filter the directory and send only to the segment that matters: just kids ministry parents, just this campus, just members who haven't given in 90 days.
Transactional
Donation receipts, event confirmations, password resets, invite emails. Branded, deliverable, and NOT counted against your broadcast meter.
Workflow-fired
Triggered by form submission, milestone, or a custom rule. The new-visitor packet, the baptism follow-up, the membership-class confirmation — all run themselves.
Direct messages
In-app DMs between members and staff. Not email — but the conversation surface that matters when someone's in crisis or has a sensitive question.
Push + SMS
When email isn't the right channel, push notifications to the app and SMS for kids check-in pickup are wired into the same workflow engine.
