Target: Catalog Browsing Behavior

Use this target in web and dialog activities, and in search rules, to target customers who browsed specific parts of the store catalog while shopping on the site over time. For example, if a customer repeatedly browsed certain categories, that customer is a prime target for advertisements or promotions for those categories.


Example

Here is an example of a web activity that uses this target effectively:

When a customer views the e-Marketing Spot in the header banner, if the customer browsed catalog entries from both the Televisions category and the Speakers category, display an advertisement for a home theater bundle.

Here is another example:

When a customer views the e-Marketing Spot in the second row of the Electronics category page, if the customer browsed either the Laptop Computers category or the Desktop Computers category at least twice in the last two days, display an ad with a contact number to chat with a computer sales expert.


Prerequisite for using this target

Make sure that the site is configured to support the Management Center marketing features.
