# Automated Activity

## What is an Automated Activity?

An Automated Activity could also be described as a rolling or re-occurring Activity or Campaign. Meaning that it is not only going to trigger once but multiple times during a set time period. 

{% hint style="success" %}
✨  **Example:** Every Friday you want to send an email advertising a specific offer to the same segment.
{% endhint %}

## Why would you use an Automated Activity?

Sometimes we have communications or campaigns that we would like to run on a re-occurring basis. By automating an activity you can save time and effort from having to set up the same activity multiple times.
