Automatically split the Iterm2 hotkey windows terminal

Question

I am looking to find a way to automatically split the iterm terminal into two vertical splits. So that I have two terminal to work with. I want to do this with my Hotkey windows terminal. I know I can split them using cmd + d option. I could not find any ways to in preference setting. So again I want windows to split automatically every-time I start a new iterm terminal without me pressing cmd +d! Let me know if there is any way.

thanks so much!
