Hello,
The process of automating email campaigns is as follows: determine campaign goals and communication purpose.
Then create a DE (Data Extension) to enter the information of the subscribers to whom you will send the email template.
Through the content builder instead, you will be able to create your template.
Once you have created the DE and the Template that will contain all the information you need to develop an automation that will go to fill in this DE, this can be done through Automation Studio.
Once you have finished the development of the automaton and populated the DE, you proceed to the Journey that will allow you to merge all the developments done previously and test and conclude the automated communication process
I hope I have been helpful to you.
If you need more information feel free to write me
