Setting Up Recommendations for Promo Campaigns

The recommendation block in the promo campaign allows you to show up to 6 products according to the data on the contact’s online behavior (viewed products on the site).

Contacts without sufficient data will see a selection of bestsellers.

If you've already set up Abandoned Cart or Abandoned Browse triggers, you can transfer the dynamic content block from the trigger to the promo template with minimal changes. The recommendations in the promo emails will look the same as in the trigger ones.

If the triggers in your account still need to be configured, or you need the layout of the recommendation block in promo emails to be different from the trigger emails, contact our support at [email protected].

Note

Before setting up the recommendations, install web tracking and upload the product feed to eSputnik.
