You can now trigger automated workflows when files are downloaded from a direct 1:1 email. Triggering an automation based on file downloads from direct emails enhances engagement, allows for timely follow-up, and provides valuable insights to optimize marketing communication and sales strategies.

 

Benefits

  • Automate timely follow up with your contacts based on their interaction with a file.

  • Adjust lead scores and prioritize follow-up efforts based on file downloads. A downloaded file may indicate higher interest or engagement with your content, which can influence lead scoring and segmentation.

  • Schedule a follow up appointment or call based on a download
  • Assign a task to a team member to discuss the content of the downloaded file
