Use case example
An airline company aims to enhance its email marketing strategy by sending tailored offers and recommendations to its contacts based on the destination country and departure date. The targeted email campaign focuses on personalized offers for purchasing tickets to programs like discounted entry fees to theme parks in the destination country, prior to the scheduled departure date.
Your relational databases store data in tables containing your customers’ bookings data:
trip_iddestination_countrydeparture_datereturn_date
Your objective is to upsell related services to your contacts. The relevant information for these events is stored in a view named booking_rec_events. The data within this view is organized in the following columns:
act_idd_idnameoutdoorcurrencyprice
Contact information is stored in the built-in contact database. However, through the Relational Data Service, the platform offers the capability to connect to your external databases as well. For more information regarding preconfiguration and requirements, please click here.
Upsell email example
Using the customer’s booking data, we can determine the destination country and travel schedule for each contact. Simultaneously, we also need to identify the available related events in the destination country, offering the best prices in the local currency. For example:
We have seen that you will travel to <destination_country> on the <departure_date>.
Are you aware that you have the opportunity to book the following programs at a discounted price? <name> for a discount price of <price> <currency>
This is how your campaign looks using the relevant ESL snippets:
