Inform agents of promotional updates
Be sure to keep your Concierge agents up-to-date on all of your promotions, exclusions, and special offers throughout the holiday season on the Promotions tab. By equipping your agents with the most up-to-date information, we're better able to serve your subscribers, convert customers, and save you time while you focus on other strategic initiatives during the holiday season!
Plan a Concierge-focused campaign
When you're creating your campaign, we recommend optimizing it for Concierge as follows:
- Maximize message engagement using an open-ended question. Prompting subscribers to reply increases engagement rates and opens the door for personalized experiences.
- Incorporate your agent persona in your messages. Adding the {{agentName}} variable to your message allows you to personalize the experience and invite subscribers to engage with your agents.
- Use prebuilt templates with optimized copy. Leveraging these for sitewide sales, product launches, and VIP customers ensures that your campaigns are optimized for Concierge.
-
Turn on Concierge for campaigns. If you haven’t done so already, please ensure your subscribers can respond to campaigns in your Concierge Settings.
