How to use Deadline Funnel and MailerLite together.
If you’re not using countdowns and deadlines, you’re leaving money on the table!
Deadlines are an easy and highly effective way to turn weak “maybes” into strong “yeses” by adding urgency to your email campaigns.
That is where Deadline Funnel can help. Deadline Funnel integrates with MailerLite to add countdown timers to your emails and increase conversions for your launches, flash sales, and evergreen campaigns (including welcome series, upsells, abandoned cart reminders, and winback campaigns).
Each subscriber in your sequence will be automatically assigned their own custom deadline – whether you’re doing a webinar… an email sequence… an automated launch… or really ANY type of campaign.
You can then display this custom deadline with a countdown timer and embed it wherever it suits you most:

First things first – you will need to create a campaign in Deadline Funnel before you can set up the integration with MailerLite.
When creating your campaign, we recommend selecting the blueprints option and then choose the “Email Sequence + Special Offer” blueprint:
Then, set the deadline length and add your first funnel step(s). Don’t worry too much about those two items – you can come back later and change those at any time.
Once you’ve created your Deadline Funnel campaign, you will be taken to the Quick Start Guide, where you can verify that the correct trigger has been selected.
Now, you can follow the steps below to integrate with MailerLite.
Once the integration is live, any subscriber who enters your automation will begin Deadline Funnel tracking the moment they hit the “webhook” step.
This step is essential, as it’s how Deadline Funnel starts tracking each subscriber’s email address as they move through your automation.
The second key piece is adding Deadline Funnel email links to your messages. Anywhere you’re linking to a page with a Deadline Funnel timer or redirect (like your special offer page), be sure to use the Deadline Funnel version of the link.
That way, your deadline tracking and redirect logic will work flawlessly, ensuring subscribers are sent to the right page when time runs out.
