Gather After-Purchase Feedback

Once your customers make a purchase, you can set up an event trigger. Customers will receive a product or service survey to fill out. Then, you are able to see their reviews and improve your services or processes if and where you need to.

This tutorial shows how to send email messages to customers with a review link for each item they bought and ask about their experience with your products. We will create two-way communication by using our visual builder, data platform, and email messages.

Solutions to combine:

NOTE

This communication can be modified to include SMS instead of email messages, or you could combine the two channels because some of your customers might prefer one or the other.

IMPLEMENTATION STEPS

You need to set up a few things before going to the Infobip visual builder and start putting the communication blocks together.

Prerequisites

Navigate to People module > Events > New Event Definition and create a PurchaseFinished Event Definition ID. This event will help you get the information that the customer has made the purchase.

The instructions for developers about the event tracking are available on the Events page, under the Web SDK Library tab.

Repeat the steps for the other event - Review Left- that you will need to use in this communication.

NOTE

Event tracking is possible when customers are logged in to your website.

Next, set up the list of items to be included in the message, including their properties: name, price, and URL. Once the customer opens your email, they will see each product followed by the review link.
