Introduction

Reusely’s Workflow Customization feature allows you to take full control over how offers and reward communications are triggered, sent, and tracked. Whether you're managing Mail-In offers, Bulk Quote, Easy Offers, or In-Store redemptions, workflows let you streamline your processes, improve consistency, and create a better experience for both your team and your customers.

This guide will walk you through how to create, edit, and manage workflows effectively.

Steps

Step 1: Accessing Workflow Settings

Open Workflow Settings

Start by going to the Workflow Settings section in your Reusely dashboard. This is where you’ll find all customization options.

Navigate to the Workflow Menu

Once inside, you’ll see three types of workflows you can manage:

  • Mail-In – for offers that are processed via mail

  • In-Store – for redemptions handled at physical store locations

  • Bulk Quote – for large-volume trade-in requests submitted and managed in bulk

  • Easy Offer – for simplified, form-based offers submitted online

Each workflow includes the following statuses:

  • Leads

  • Pending

  • In-Transit

  • Delivered

  • Being Inspected

  • Delivered

  • On Hold

  • Payout Processing

  • Completed – Payment Sent

  • Not as Described

  • Returned

Automatically Updated Statuses

Some workflow statuses are triggered automatically based on external data—particularly tracking information from carriers. For example:

  • When a package is scanned by the carrier, the status can automatically update from Lead to In Transit

  • When the carrier confirms Delivered, the system will update the status accordingly

This automation reduces manual effort and ensures timely updates, as long as:

  • Tracking numbers are correctly entered

  • The carrier provides real-time updates to Reusely

Manually Updated Statuses

Other steps in the workflow require manual input from your team. These typically involve actions that can’t be tracked automatically, such as:

  • Inspecting a device

  • Placing an offer On Hold

  • Marking a device as Not as Described

  • Initiating or completing a Payout

In these cases, your staff must manually update the status to reflect the current stage.


Step 2: Dashboard Display Preferences


This section lets you customize how workflows appear in your dashboard layout.

  • Choose how many workflows you want visible on your dashboard at once

  • See available Workflows

  • See all your created workflows and which ones are selected for display

  • Click Save to apply your layout preferences

You can also toggle whether an email should be sent when a status changes — enabling or disabling this setting as needed.


Step 3: Creating a New Workflow

Start Fresh

Click add Workflow to set up a new status. This is helpful when testing, launching a new campaign, or customizing a new offer experience.


Set Workflow Details

Provide the following:

  • Status Name – full label of the status

  • Short Name – a brief internal identifier

  • Description – explains what this status is used for

Configure Triggers

Determine how and when this workflow should activate:

  • Set the Trigger Settings (0, 1, 2, or 3)

  • Time Delay (Immediately, Day, or Hour).

    Note: The Time Delay options will only be available if the Triggers are set to a value greater than 0.

Email Configuration

Brand and personalize your email content:

  • Upload your company logo for consistent branding

  • Add BCC recipients, set the subject line, and write the email message

Click Save once your workflow is ready.

Using Dynamic Tags in Workflow Emails

To make your workflow emails more personalized and relevant, Reusely allows you to insert dynamic tags (also known as merge tags or variables) into your email content. These tags automatically pull in specific customer or offer details when the email is sent, so every message feels tailored — without requiring manual editing.

Common Dynamic Tags Available

Here are some examples of tags you can use in your workflow email templates:

  • {{customer.first_name}} – Customer's first name

  • {{customer.last_name}} – Customer's last name

  • {{customer.email}} – Customer's email address

  • {{offer.id}} – The unique ID of the offer

When you send the email, these tags will automatically be replaced with the actual data from the offer.


Step 4: Managing Existing Workflows

From the workflow list, you can:

  • Edit – update names, triggers, and content

  • Preview – check how the Email appears

  • Delete – remove workflows that are no longer needed

Editing a workflow works just like creating a new one. Don’t forget to update the logo, BCC, subject, and message as needed. Always click Save after making changes.


Conclusion

You’ve now completed your workflow customization in Reusely. Keeping your workflows organized and updated ensures consistent communication, improved operational flow, and a better customer experience.

Use workflows to automate and simplify actions, so your team stays efficient and your offers stay on track — every time.
