Advisor-campaigns

With advisor campaigns you have the opportunity to store questions as text or as graphics that are presented to shop visitors in certain situations. You provide answers to the questions that the visitor can choose. For each answer there is a product set that the visitor will see when selecting the answer. This allows you to quickly guide visitors with targeted questions to the products they are looking for.

With consultant campaigns you can also react cleverly to emerging trends or suggest frequently selected filter combinations.

Create advisor campaigns

To create new Advisor, click New Element in the heading part of the window to access the menu:

Number of hits

Checks number of products found.

Search results page

Checks which search results page the user is viewing (1,2,3,...).

Products per page

Checks the page size that the user has selected.

Search field

Checks in which field the search was carried out. This parameter is only used for special integrations that search in individual fields. By default, FactFinder searches in all fields, in these cases the parameter is empty.

The search is an item number search

Checks whether FactFinder has carried out an article number search, for example because the search term entered was identified as an article number.

The search is not an article number search

Checks whether the search explicitly stated that the search entry should not be interpreted as an article number.

Number of filters

Checks how many filters the user has selected.

Selected filters

Checks whether the user has selected a specific filter with a specific value.

parameter

Tests for any parameter passed to the search. This criterion can be used with special FactFinder integrations. FactFinder remembers all URL parameters (for web services: Params.custom.Params) that were passed to the search. These parameters can be queried using this criterion.

Score of the first hit

Checks the score of the first hit found.

Distance to market

Checks the distance (in km) between the selected market and the user's location.

Distance to location

Checks the distance (in km) between the selected location and the user's location

Create consultant

In the next step, you create the actual advisor. This takes the form of a decision tree that allows the customer to access specific lists of products via any number of questions.

To start adding the options, click Add Root Question.

Ask an introductory question and add any number of possible answers. The questions can consist of text only, but you also have the option of inserting images or videos.

You can add further answers to your questions using the three-dot icon .

Each answer can either be the starting point for a new question or contain a product list.

You can exclude products from the campaign based on geo-policies:

Here you can specify that pushed products that are outside the range of the search location are excluded from the search. With the second option you exclude products that have no values for the selected market.

Outside of these options, search location and market selection have no influence on the campaign.

Create product lists

To access Product lists management, click available Answer to access Product List button.

Items can be selected in three ways.

Product list

Here you carry out one or more product searches similar to those in the shop. You can either move the articles that you want to include in the campaign individually using drag-and-drop, or    mark them as a group and    transfer them using the button. The articles found can be filtered by facet. In addition, you can also use the  button to filter the result for specific words in all or a single field.

Manual product entry

Alternatively, you can create an article list manually by selecting ProductIDs, EANs, etc. and then entering them in the input field.

Product Search

The third option is product search. Unlike the previous options, this one offers a dynamic item list. For example, if you add new items to your range that match the search criteria, these will be displayed as campaign content.

The articles found can be filtered according to facets, for example to promote certain brands.

Complete campaign

To complete the process, give the campaign a name, a category and a description. You can either set an activity period or have the campaign permanently active.

New feature

You can use the Ad campaign checkbox to visibly mark campaign objects as advertising.
