Automation Center program
The basic, email-only program in the Advanced package looks like this.
The most advanced program in the Max AI package is built in the following way.
The Max AI elements
1. The first Filter switch node splits your contacts into two groups:
- Contacts who are likely to engage on the web will continue their journey on the Include path.
- Contacts who are less likely to engage on the web will continue their journey on the Exclude path.
2. On the Exclude path, the first Filter switch node divides your contacts into the following two groups:
- Contacts who are likely to engage with your email campaigns will continue their journey on the Include path. As a result, they will receive your email campaign.
- Contacts who are less likely to engage with your email campaigns will continue their journey on the Exclude path. As a result, they will be added to your Digital Ads campaign.
