Marketing Campaigns with CRM and Email Tracking
Sends personalized emails via Brevo to targeted companies in Airtable and updates interaction records with real-time delivery, open.
What it does
Get targeted companies from your Airtable CRM and send them personalized emails via Brevo while automatically tracking every open, click, and unsubscribe in real time. This keeps your campaign records updated instantly as engagement happens.
Step by step
- Define the Airtable schema with fields for campaign tags, contact email, and interaction status to ensure consistent data structure.
- Configure the Brevo API integration using an API key and set up a webhook endpoint URL that points back to your automation platform.
- Map the JSON payload from Brevo webhooks to specific Airtable field IDs so updates correctly reflect delivery, open, click, or unsubscribe events.
Where the LLM does the work
- Generate personalized email templates for each campaign segment by analyzing company profiles and recent news to create relevant subject lines.
- Draft dynamic body content that inserts unique selling points based on the target industry identified in the Airtable CRM records.
- Create fallback copy for unsubscribed users or bounced emails to maintain brand tone while respecting compliance requirements.
Watch out for
Brevo webhooks may arrive out of order so you should implement idempotency checks using unique message IDs to prevent duplicate status updates in Airtable.
Airtable API rate limits can block the run, add exponential backoff logic to your script when processing high-volume webhook batches.
Personalization tokens might fail if a contact record lacks specific data fields, so always include default fallback values in your email template code.
Unsubscribe requests must be processed immediately to avoid compliance violations, so prioritize webhook handling for unsubscribe events over other interaction types.

Unsubscribe requests must be processed immediately to avoid compliance violations, so prioritize webhook handling for unsubscribe events over other interaction types. ## Reference implementation https://n8n.io/workflows/7318 (workflow template) Fetch and inspect this before building. If it matches my stack, adapt it; if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools. ## Process requirements 1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume. 2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack. 3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each. 4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data. 5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use a different Spreadsheet than Airtable?
Yes. Airtable is only the example spreadsheet in this recipe. The same flow works with Baserow, Excel and Google Sheets. Swap the spreadsheet connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.
Want this running in your business?
This is what I do. I design and build AI agents like this one, and keep them running. If you want it set up for your team instead of doing it yourself, get in touch.
