Lifecycle marketing
Build smart marketing automation programs
Enrollment
Start your customer's journey with an enrollment condition. This could be based on segments or triggered by an online action. Set schedules and limits to ensure the right people enter at the right time.
Actions
Drag and drop action nodes into your program to build your customer’s journey. Boost engagement with triggered email and SMS campaigns, and keep your data clean and tidy by updating contacts and address books automatically.
Decisions
Customize your contact's journey with decision nodes. Trigger different routes depending on activity such as opens, web behavior, or order insight. Plus, give your contacts time to respond by including delay nodes.
Annotations
Team collaboration is easy thanks to Engagement Cloud's annotation feature. Leave notes in your programs to call out specific nodes or explain your logic.
Exit conditions
Automatically enroll customers onto the next stage of their journey with specific exit conditions. These can be determined by the route they've just completed.





Extend your reach
Make an impact with omnichannel messages and effective re-targeting
Facebook Audiences
Funnel unengaged contacts from a program into a new or existing Facebook Audience. Personalize ads based on web behavior and watch customers come flying back.
Google Ads
Unlock your conversion potential by driving contacts to act with hyper-targeted Google Ads.
SMS
Integrate SMS messaging into your programs, updating customers on promotions and need-to-know information. This could be an in-store limited offer, appointment confirmation, or product dispatch note.
Mobile messaging
Engage your customers in a way that’s more natural to them. Use channels such as Facebook Messenger to promote exclusive events or new product releases.
Push notifications
Get even closer to your customers by adding push notifications to your automation programs and deliver your message straight into the palm of their hand.





Engagement Cloud’s smart automation capabilities have taken our customer engagement to the next level.
Program building
Control and action, on demand
Stop and start
Pause, modify, and re-start your automation program at the click of a button. Enrolled contacts will remain where they are while you make those all-important changes.
Divert contacts
If one route of your program is performing better than another, divert contacts down the most effective path and benefit from the results.
Real-time count
View how many contacts sit at each node and assess your program’s impact. If contacts are persistently held at a particular node, attempt to nudge them by making changes to your campaign.
Split testing
Quantity-split your contacts and send them down separate paths to discover which campaigns and channels work best. Then optimize.
