Last updated: February 24, 2026
Overview
The embedded Marketing Suite in Noto allows businesses to create, target, automate, and track communications with members directly inside the platform. It includes tools for email templates, segments, campaigns, triggers, and reviews, all designed to work seamlessly with Noto’s CRM and class enrollment data.
This article provides an overview of each component and how they work together.
Email Templates
Email templates are reusable designs used when creating campaigns or automated emails.
You can create templates in two ways:
AI-generated templates
Provide a prompt and your website URL
Automatically pulls your branding, including colors and fonts
Manual templates
Drag-and-drop editor
Add images, text blocks, and call-to-action buttons
Fully customizable layout and design
Templates are ideal for recurring communications that follow a consistent style.
Migrating existing templates: If you have existing templates outside of Noto, you can paste the raw HTML into the AI Template Creator to quickly adapt your current designs in Noto.
Segments
Segments define who your communications are sent to. They are groups of filters applied to members in your database.
Segments can be created:
Manually
Using AI
Available Segment Filters
Member fields
Includes all standard and custom fields (e.g. graduation year), birth day, guardian vs dependent, etc.
Customer lead status
Matches CRM lead stage (e.g. prospective students)
Enrolled Services and Status
Filters by active enrollment in group or private classes
Example Segments
Students graduating in a specific year (e.g. 2026)
New prospective students (Lead Stage = New)
All active students (enrolled in any service)
Segments are reused across campaigns and triggers to ensure targeted messaging.
