ZINFI UPM GuideMulti-Touch Campaign Management for Channel Partners

01

Introduction

ZINFI's Multi-Touch Application allows partners to create tactics or integrated campaigns as part of their marketing efforts. Using the multi-touch approach enables an organization to set up diverse content and a variety of campaign tactics so that channel partners can run single-touch co-branded campaigns using a SMART campaign flow.

Launch a Campaign

Launching a campaign from the Campaign Library follows a two-step process: selecting the campaign and then choosing the specific tactic to execute.

3.1 Campaign Interstitial Page

  1. From the Campaign Library, select a campaign and click the Get Started button.
  2. You land on the Campaign Information (Interstitial) page, which shows:
    • The campaign title and its brief description.
    • Campaign metadata: Solution Offered, Audience, and Tactic Type.
    • Tactic tiles showing how many items are available for each tool (Email, Microsite, Web Syndication, Event, Multi-Touch, etc.) with Set-Up and Launch buttons for each.

Multi-Touch Campaigns

Multi-Touch Campaigns are automated drip sequences assigned by the Admin — combining emails, microsites, and other tactics in a sequential flow. Partners copy an assigned flow, co-brand each step, and then launch the complete sequence to a mailing list.

4.1 View Campaigns

Multi-Touch Campaigns are visible in the Campaign Library under the Multi-Touch execution type. To access them, look for campaigns whose Execution Type is listed as Multi Touch in the Campaign Library, then click Get Started.
