Setting up Adobe Target is a straightforward process, but optimizing it for maximum effectiveness requires a more nuanced approach.

First, you need to define your goals and objectives, which should be based on your business's key performance indicators (KPIs).

To create a successful campaign, you need to segment your audience based on their behavior, demographics, and other relevant factors.

Adobe Target allows you to use machine learning algorithms to automatically personalize content for your users, which can lead to significant improvements in engagement and conversion rates.

Setting Up Adobe Target

To set up Adobe Target, define the channels you want the connection to be active on. You can specify a limited set of channels or pages if needed.

You'll also need to enter the name of your Adobe Target data layer, making sure it doesn't contain any spaces or special characters. Adobe Target will use the object name "s" by default.

To make the connection work, you'll have to add at least one goal and save your settings. Once you've done this, switch the connection on to get it up and running.

Setting up connections is a crucial step in getting Adobe Target up and running. To start, you need to define channels for the connection to be active.

You can specify a limited set of channels or pages by clicking on the channel definition field. This is an optional step, but it can help you fine-tune your connection.

Next, enter the name of your Adobe Target data layer. Make sure to use a name without any spaces or special characters. Adobe Target will use the object name "s" by default.

To keep track of your connection's performance, check the data exchange section at the bottom of the setup page. This section shows the number of unique profiles that are created or enriched via the connection.

Don't worry if the same profile is exported multiple times; it's still counted as 1 unique profile.

To make the connection work, you need to add at least one goal, save your settings, and switch the connection on.

Importing data into BlueConic is a crucial step in setting up Adobe Target. You'll want to select the BlueConic segment that holds the profiles you want to enrich with Adobe Target data.

To do this, go to the top right-hand corner of the screen and note the number of profiles available for import. This number shows how many profiles meet the conditions for the selected segment and are available for import.

You can then map the Adobe Target data to BlueConic profile properties. This can be done manually or by using the visual picker or link to add a mapping. Simply select the BlueConic profile property the data populates by entering a search term, or create a new profile property to hold the data.

To import the data, select how to import it from the drop-down list. You can also use the cogwheel icon to set restrictions on the values to import.

  2. Map the Adobe Target data to BlueConic profile properties.
  3. Click Save on the top right corner of the screen to save your import goal.

Remember, BlueConic tries to import only the profiles that have changed since the last import. The number of profiles imported might be lower than the number displayed.

Exporting Data

Adobe Target allows you to export data from your account through the "Data Export" feature. This feature enables you to download your data in a CSV or JSON file.

You can export data from a specific date range, making it easier to track changes over time.

The exported data includes metrics such as click-through rate, conversion rate, and revenue.

Data export is useful for analyzing offline data or integrating it with other tools for further analysis.
