For the email subject, use the following format:

Daily Horoscope Review Email - %Subscriber:CustomField142% / %Date=jS M, Y%

This will personalize the email subject line based on the recipient's zodiac sign and the email delivery date. For example, it might read:

Daily Horoscope Review Email - Scorpio / 10th August, 2023

Step 3: Create the Email Content

Click on the "Open Email Builder" button to open the drag-n-drop email builder.

Here, you can create the email layout based on your preference. Once you're done, close the email builder.

Step 5: Schedule the Email Campaign

Schedule the email campaign to be sent every day at 9 AM. Once you've done this and saved your email campaign, it will be auto-triggered by Octeth every morning at 9 AM.
