# Quickstart

> Build your first automated marketing workflow in under 10 minutes using Markifact.

In this quickstart, you’ll build a simple but powerful 4-node workflow:

> Run every day → Pull Google Analytics data → Analyze with AI → Email the insights

No code. Just drag, connect, and configure.

## Step 1: Create a New Workflow

1. Go to your **Workflows** tab.
2. Click **+ New Workflow**.
3. Give it a name like `Daily Analytics Report`.

## Step 2: Add a Scheduler Trigger

1. Click **Add Node**, then choose **Scheduler**.
2. Set it to run **daily at 9:00 AM** (or any time you prefer).

This will start the workflow every day at your chosen time.

## Step 3: Pull Google Analytics Data

1. Click **+** to add the next node.
2. Search for **Google Analytics → Get Report**.
3. Select your connected Google account.
4. Choose the property and metrics (like sessions, bounce rate, users).
5. Set the date range to **"Yesterday"**.

## Step 4: Analyze the Data with AI

1. Add the next node: **AI → Analyze Data**.

2. In the **Data** section, select the output from the previous **Get Report** node. Here's what it looks like:

3. Use a prompt like:\
   `"Give me a short summary of the key metrics and any anomalies or trends worth noting."`

4. Set output format to **Markdown**.

5. Save the node.

***

## Step 5: Send an Email

1. Add the final node: **Email → Send Email**.
2. In the **Body**, insert the AI output from the previous step using the dynamic variable selector.
3. Set the subject to something like `Daily Website Performance Summary`.
4. Choose the recipient email (you or your team).

## Step 6: Activate Your Workflow

Click **Activate** switch in the top right. Your first workflow is now live.

You can run it manually to test by clicking the **Run** button.

Each morning, you’ll get a clean, AI-generated summary of your site’s performance in your inbox—no manual work needed.
