Marketing Cloud Engagement
Build relationships with engagement marketing tools, powered by AI. Activate your data to deliver personalized campaigns at scale and increase customer lifetime value.
What can you do with an engagement marketing platform?
Create and deliver AI-powered, personalized campaigns connecting every moment of customer engagement.
Activate relevant customer data at scale.
Design and deliver personalized customer journeys that improve engagement and conversions — across the entire lifecycle. Use simple, drag-and-drop tools to streamline journey creation — with messaging, content, and AI-decisioning built into a single workflow. Automate triggered experiences, like post-purchase or cross-selling, using data from various data sources or API events. And optimize each individual experience using real-time customer data, which ensures relevancy at every moment.
Integrate any type of customer message, even offline channels, into your customer journeys. Deliver a connected marketing experience that uses AI and decisioning to better engage your customers, no matter where they are. Using email, mobile push, SMS, third-party messaging, advertising — or even direct mail — you can design, build, and deploy those moments, all in one central console.
Unify departmental silos to simplify the customer experience. With native integrations across Salesforce products, you can build connected journeys, regardless of whether your customers are engaging with marketing channels, service centers, sales reps, or loyalty programs. Power engagements with integrated activities across the platform — such as a service center follow-up, triggered by a negative customer survey result.
Engage with hyper-dynamic content on the right channel.
Push the limits of email personalization and campaign efficiency with AI. Choose from prebuilt templates or create tailored customer emails from scratch. Integrate all of your campaigns, including transactional and promotional messages, and manage your email sender score, with a single platform. Choose the right piece of content for each customer, from a convenient, consolidated library.
Reach your customers on their preferred channels with integrated in-app engagement. With push messaging, you can use geotargeting or behavioral data to deliver relevant and timely messages that maximize both app engagement and ROI.
Engage customers with bidirectional mobile messaging platforms — like SMS, WhatsApp, and LINE — so that customers can connect directly with your brand. Learn more about your customers by interacting with them through conversational marketing for engagements like appointment confirmations, surveys, or building preferences — all while delivering impactful experiences that build strong, brand-customer relationships.
Maximize marketing effectiveness.
Knowledge is power — so grow your marketing with stronger analytics. Analyze journey performance with built-in dashboards to optimize your campaigns across email, mobile, and advertising. With easy filtering, sorting, and grouping capabilities, you can build custom reports and easily share insights with key stakeholders. Use performance data to optimize campaigns — all to help you drive engagement and grow customer lifetime value.
Connect campaigns with Google Analytics for a deeper understanding of customer behavior across email, web, and mobile journeys. GA4 collects both website and app data to provide a holistic view of customer engagement — so marketers can optimize existing campaigns and the entire ecosystem of journeys. With this integration, marketers can also manage Google audiences and segments directly in Marketing Cloud Engagement to refine segments, trigger journey experiences, and reach customers with targeted ads.
Activate first-party audience segments across the digital ad ecosystem to power your customer acquisition and conversion campaigns. Choose from Google, Meta, Twitter, and more to extend your reach, leveraging first-party customer data to enhance your targeting and messaging for more relevant advertising experiences. Engage segments with advertising-specific campaigns or add advertising within your customer journeys for connected cross-channel experiences
