Sending e-mail of links clicked on a PURL LP

Hello!

I'm planning on sending a PURL landing page to current customers. I would like to e-mail my sales team with a notification of what links/pdf are downloaded on the PURL page. I have multiple links/pdfs on the page. Is there a way to do this?

Thank you!

You mean an actual pURL sent via direct (physical) mail, yes? (Not simply an LP link sent via email.)

Yes, the pURL will be sent directly to customers. However, we would like to set an e-mail to send the Sales team an e-mail when the customers have landed on the page reflecting their download activity. We will have multiple pdf linked on the page.

OK, first you need to make sure pURLs function as expected, as I show here: Fixing Marketo pURLs

Next, you should make sure your links differ by more than just the query string.  That is:

  • the URLs http​://www.example.com/getpdf?id=12 and http​://www.example.com/getpdf?id=78 are not sufficiently different for this task
  • http​://www.example.com/whitepaper-apples.pdf and http​://www.example.com/whitepaper-oranges.pdf are sufficiently different because they differ in path/filename

Then include the token {{trigger.Name}} in your triggered email.
