Event triggered emails are useful for many communication purposes and complement your promotional emails marketing programs.

Symphonie distinguishes event triggered emails as “documents” to clearly differentiate them from other promotional emails you create in marketing. Documents that become triggered emails may include opt-in confirmations, invoices, shipping statements, snow reports—all of which are triggered by you. These triggers can be due to the customer taking an action on your website, like making a purchase, or can be based on external factors, like a significant change in a stock price or warning of a school closure. It’s also easy to automate time-based triggered emails, to send a birthday coupon or a daily weather report. These triggered emails provide efficiency benefits for your business, as well as enable a better customer service experience.

Symphonie gives you the flexibility to create and configure your event triggered emails.

You can use all the rich creation and editing features of Symphonie to build an event triggered email. Create the content using the full-featured editor, preview and test the content to be sure it meets your standards. Event triggered emails have a priority setting just like regular mailings, so you can ensure that customers requesting information or otherwise interacting with your site get an immediate email response.

With Symphonie, event triggered emails can contain prepared or dynamic content making them very powerful automated communications.

When you can define the content, such as opt-in confirmations and unsubscribe confirmations, the email can be prepared beforehand and staged for delivery automatically. On the other hand, dynamic content consists of forms and fields in your email uniquely generated for each situation, and often just before the email document is sent, such as an order confirmation. You may even choose to design an event triggered email document to contain both prepared and dynamic content. For example, the order confirmation could contain a standard company header, company name, address and logo, as well as the company policy regarding returns. All this information is prepared beforehand, formatted so the appearance is attractive, then the dynamic content is automatically merged into appropriate fields for each recipient before being sent.

With Symphonie’s dynamic content features it’s easy to dynamically include information from any external source. Read data real-time from your order processing system to send an order confirmation email to customers. Connect real-time to get shipping details that can be merged into the mailing. Include purchased recommendation based on past purchase history for each recipient in their birthday coupon offer. The data for the dynamic content can even be passed directly to Symphonie when the triggered email is activated, allowing the collected information from your website to be merged easily and efficiently into a triggered mailing.
