This guide has all the information you need to manage your Connectif account, from integrating and configuring your store to the different elements and features that make up the platform, plus how to create workflows and ask for help from our support team when you need it. 

 

How to get started with Connectif 

1. Integrating your store

Integrating your account with Connectif is the first step to collecting data on contact interactions, purchases and your catalog, to use in your marketing strategies.

There are several ways to integrate Connectif with your store depending on the technology you use:

1.1. Integration via modules

The easiest way to synchronize your ecommerce with Connectif is via one of the existing modules, currently available for the following platforms:

Onboarding

1.2. Custom integration

If your online store does not use any of the above CMS, you’ll need to implement a custom integration via tags, JavaScript events or the Connectif API:

1.3. Verifying the integration

Before going into production it is important to check that all events are being sent correctly. To perform a synchronization check, you’ll need to simulate a contact's interaction on the website and confirm that all activity is being picked up in Connectif.

2. Configuring the communication channels

Contacts’ data will start being collected as soon as the store is integrated but you’ll need to configure the different channels before being able to communicate with them.

3. Managing contacts and their activity

With your channels set up, you can now import your contacts and organize and target your audiences. Learn about the information Connectif receives, how it stores your contacts' data and activity, and how to leverage all this knowledge to generate interactions.
 

3.1. Contact information

Contact cards are the place to view all the information collected by Connectif about your ecommerce contacts and their digital footprint, and to update them if necessary.

Managing, importing and updating contacts to Connectif is crucial to setting up your account. There are different ways to keep your database updated and optimized:

4.3. Product segmentation

By indicating certain conditions and rules to Connectif about your catalog, you’ll obtain product segments that will be available in real time for use in different strategies.

5. Connection with other external channels

If you need to receive and send data that is not collected or shared by default in your store integration, as well as connect your contacts with audiences from other platforms, you can do so via custom webhooks and integrations with audience connectors.

5.1. Predefined webhooks

By integrating your account with the Spoki tool you can create automated WhatsApp campaigns for instant communication with your contacts.

You design the different types of content using editors, which all have a similar structure to make them intuitive to work with.

6.1. Web content

Connectif's Web content allows you to reach ecommerce visitors via different formats that you create in the Web content editor: popup, floating bar, inline, slide-in and full screen. These are integrated into the page with no need to make changes to the structure of the website.

Add native Connectif forms to your web content to boost user acquisition.

6.6 Use the content creation wizard

Connectif Copilot is an assistant that works with artificial intelligence to help you generate texts for your digital marketing campaigns. With this chat – based on ChatGPT – you can create original content and review, translate and optimize it in an agile way.

7. Creating strategies using workflows 

When you have created your content, you can show it to your contacts and visitors via workflows. Manage all your strategies through the Workflows interface and edit or create new ones using the Workflow editor.

Workflows are composed of nodes, which are configured with the target audience, data to be collected, conditions to which it responds and the actions that are carried out, allowing you to design different paths within the nodes.

7.1. Workflow interface

Workflows is the place where all the flows created in your Connectif account are saved. Via this screen you can access and manage your various strategies as well as create new workflows and start those that are ready.

Onboarding

7.2. Workflow editor

The Workflow editor is the feature that allows you to create and edit workflows and set up a range of strategies to optimize your business results. 

Onboarding

7.3. Connectif nodes

The nodes act as stages on the journey that the contact follows through the workflow. By default, you will always find a single "Start" node in the editor, from which all the strategies start and which establishes the contacts they will target. 

In Connectif there are three types of nodes, which add actions, conditions or triggers to the flow and which the contact continues through:

7.4. Your first available workflows and templates

Connectif has a series of workflow templates ready to customize and use:

You can also access use cases from the Workflow template directory in your account.
