Manage variables in a newsletter
This guide explains how to add tags (codes and variables) to the body of your text to personalize your mailings with Newsletter Infomaniak.
Introduction
- A subscriber exists in the form of an email address, but not only that:
- You may have additional details about them, which must be included in the file you import so that you can define a custom field associated with each of these additional pieces of information.
- Many other pieces of information can be collected during the registration of a subscriber via a form.
- You can add many other pieces of information manually at any time.
- The information associated with each subscriber can be used to segment your audience, send targeted messages, and improve engagement.
- By leveraging these additional details, you increase the chances of conversion and customer retention, thereby creating a stronger and more personalized relationship with each subscriber.
