# How to Send an Email to a Single Contact

> Send an Email Broadcast to a single contact using a custom segment filter.

Send an **Email Broadcast** to a single contact by creating a custom segment filter with their email address.

## Email Broadcasts

To send an email to a single contact, you will need to use Hifunnel's Email Broadcasts.

Email Broadcasts are a type of marketing email on Hifunnel commonly used as Email Blasts, Newsletters, or individually crafted emails sent to a specified audience.

Build and design your Email Broadcasts with the [Email Visual Editor](https://github.com/hifunnel-org/hifunnel-help-center/tree/main/en/documentation/marketing/email-campaigns/email-visual-editor-overview/README.md) or the Classic Editor to reach your audience and grow your brand.

**Tip:** To send an email to a contact, that contact must be subscribed to your marketing emails. If they are not subscribed you will not be able to send that contact an email. Learn more about [subscription status.](https://github.com/hifunnel-org/hifunnel-help-center/tree/main/en/documentation/contacts/manage-your-contacts/what-does-the-subscription-status-mean/README.md)
