Sending an email or SMS on a recipient's birthday can be a good way of sending personalised content and engaging with your recipients. The personalised content could contain a birthday offer, gift, or voucher that can be used X amount of days after the birthday.
In order to set up a birthday flow, you'll need to have a Person Data field which contains your recipients' birthday.
This particular example will send a birthday SMS or email when it will be the recipient's birthday soon.
