Hi Everyone,  
  
  
  
I am a new Mautic cloud user and have been racking my brain trying to figure something out.  
  
  
  
Here’s the sequence I envisage:

1. I send an e-mail to a contact that has gone cold. The e-mail contains a button for them to click.  
2. When they click the button, they would ideally be pushed into the top of a campaign.  
  
  
  
The thing is, I am not sure how to tie that button click back into Mautic to register as an event against that contact.  
  
  
  
I am thinking along the lines of a landing page that would be brought up upon the click of the button, but how do I associate the opening of that landing page into anything actionable?  
  
  
  
Surely there must be a way to do this? Can someone give me a quick overview of how this could be done?  
  
  
  
Thanks in advance for your time and assistance.  
  
Cheers,  
  
Mino

Of course @mino. And the way is very easy. Try to make a campaign that s depends of your Formular or segments (what ever you want), send an email… after email, in the workflow choose “decision”. You could use a lot of ways to do this: “Open Email”, “Click a link” or “visit LandingPage” and … if this happens, create an action called “change campaign” to add in another campaign. Easy… Done¡ xD
