Hi @Aria Sound, welcome to Klaviyo and the community!

So, a lot of the warming up with a dedicated sending domain documentation pertains to brands with a larger list coming in from another platform and want to make sure the platform switch doesn’t disrupt their sender reputation with the various inbox providers.  

For newcomers to email marketing in general, I think your intuition is spot on, just turn on your high engaging/converting Flows to start and you can start monitoring their performance.  

You can mix in some Campaign sends as well, and even though your list is small it lets those folks who did sign up a chance to get acclimated to your emails.  A side benefit is you can practice using Klaviyo for Campaigns and get more familiar with the platform as your build your List.

If you ever run into problems, just share them here and I’m confident someone in the community will be glad to assist!

Thanks for the quick reply! I’ll set up my welcome and abandonment flows and build my list.

I’ve had issues with the emails from my welcome flows going into spam, as I sent a demo email to my personal emails and I noticed they all went to spam. Do you have any tips? Would getting rid of the “Klaviyo” watermark help deliverability?

Hi @Aria Sound!
