1. Odoo Marketing Automation: The Foundation of Scalable Growth

At its core, odoo marketing automation uses your CRM, contacts, and database records to trigger actions. A “campaign” can send emails, schedule a new activity, add tags, update fields, or even end workflows when a condition is met.

The automation builder allows you to:

  • create a new campaign using the New button
  • select target participants using filters, rules, or domain logic
  • define how your workflow should run
  • connect email campaigns to the process
  • add actions based on user behavior (message opened, link tracker clicked, etc.)
  • monitor the total number of participants via the dashboard

Doodex Growth Suite for Odoo

However, while powerful, the default Odoo app lacks advanced logic and multi-step nurturing flows that many companies require. Doodex Growth Suite solves this by adding deeper triggers, richer templates, better reports, and enhanced automation controls.

2. How Email Campaigns Work Inside Odoo

Email campaigns in Odoo are the backbone of automated lead nurturing.

You can create an email, choose a template, define conditions, and schedule the sending time. Native features include:

  • link tracker integration
  • automated sending rules
  • segmentation filters
  • message editor
  • multi-stage automation steps
  • activity traces and reporting

With Doodex Growth Suite installed, you get additional funnels, smarter triggers, and pre-built growth playbooks designed to increase the number of conversions while reducing manual work.

Imagine:

When a user fills a form → a new lead is added to your database → an automated rule triggers → an email is sent → a follow-up activity is scheduled for your team → the CRM stage updates → progress becomes visible in the dashboard.

Automation connects every step, reducing manual handling while improving timing and context.
