### Show an ad

### Send an email
The **Show an ad** step lets you send users to an advertising destination. You can also configure exit settings that remove users from the ad step after specific periods of time.

For example, you may want to show an ad for only one week to users who abandoned a cart during a purchase. With the Show an ad step, you can remove users from the ad destination seven days after they enter it.

Follow these steps to add a Show an ad step to a Journey:

1. From the Journey builder, select the **+** icon to add a step, then select **Show an ad**.
2. Name the step, then select **+ Add destination**.
4. Choose the ad destination that Segment will sync to.
5. To specify how long users will remain in the step, choose one of the following options:
1. If you want users to exit the destination, select the checkbox next to **Remove users from the destination after**. Set a time frame in minutes, hours, days, or weeks.
2. If you want users to stay in the ad destination indefinitely, leave the checkbox empty.
6. Select **Save** to finish creating the step.

### Channels steps

The **Send an Email** and **Send an SMS** steps are only available on [Engage Premier](/docs/engage/onboarding/).

#### Send an email

Use Twilio Engage to send email as a step in a Journey.
