Excerpt

Everyone loves it when something is customised just for them. Now, you can tailor the content on your website to the individuals who use it. With your users' preferences in mind, you can display promotions, targeted messaging, and product suggestions.

Offering relevant content through personalisation builds loyalty, strengthens customer relationships, and can drive sales.   This guide will walk you through Personalisation in the Commerce Vision CMS.

Rule Maintenance

Navigate to Advanced ContentPersonalisation.  Here's the Rule Maintenance page where all of your personalisation rules will live.

You can see existing rules (if you have any), or create a new rule from this screen.

Let's say we're running a promotion on fitness equipment, and we want to target people with users who have these products in their Favourites / Wishlist.

  1. On the Personalisation - Rule Maintenance page, click 'Create New Rule'.

  2. Enter a name for your rule. Be descriptive - the name might help you easily locate your rule among a long list one day!

  3. Select a user scenario from the list. You can enter a search term to filter results by keyword.

  4. Double-click the scenario (or highlight it and click 'Add') to add it to the rule builder.

  5. Next, set the value of each variable in the scenario:
    • some variables will toggle between 2 options on click (has/has not, more/less, etc.)
    • other variables will launch a popup on click, where you can define the value (such as a product code, number of days, dollar amount, etc.)

  6. Repeat steps 3 - 5 if your rule will be built from multiple scenarios.

  7. Save or Save and Exit.


Apply a Rule to a Widget

Now that our rule is created, let's personalise a widget with it. A campaign slider full of fitness products sounds good.

  1. Navigate to the template the widget is on (in our example, it's the home page).
