Key highlights of the new Adobe Dynamic Chat

      Adobe Dynamic Chat is the new conversational channel for Marketo Engage that enables businesses to design and deliver personalized contextual conversations to every web visitor. Since its first launch in Feb 2022, we have received tremendous traction and a lot of feedback on how businesses would like to leverage this more and make it an integral part of their overall marketing strategy.   We are super excited to announce many exciting capabilities that will help you drive even more engagement and pipeline! Following are some highlights that have been introduced:   Live Chat Conversations Offer your qualified web visitors to connect with your sales representatives through chat.     Conversational Flows Probably not every action has to lead to a conversation but every action has to lead to more engagement. With Conversational Flows you achieve exactly that. Design a conversation flow and trigger the flow to any visitor on a specific action (for example: Click on a CTA button, on page load, spent more than X second on the page etc)   Targeting based on Marketo Engage Smart List Bringing the power of segmentation and targeting from Marketo Engage into Dynamic Chat, now you can target your website visitor using the Smart List that you already created in your Marketo Engage instance.   Best part all this happens in near realtime!   Conversational Forms A typical engagement with a form ends after a formfill but what if we can engage with visitor right then when they have the highest intent to engage. With conversational forms now you can drive personalized engagement flows based on what a visitor has filled in the form.   An exciting part is this feature will be natively available on all your Marketo Engage forms and configured directly from Marketo Engage.   Global Reporting Dashboards While we have reporting available at each dialogue level, to get the overall engagement you might want a better way. We introduced 3 new reporting dashboards into Adobe Dynamic Chat:   Global Performance Report   Meetings Performance Report Live Chat Performance Report   All these reporting dashboard comes with some advanced filters like visitor type (known, annonymous), engagement source (dialogues or conversational flows), date range etc. You also have option to export the data into an Excel and do further analysis   Create roles and permissions Create product profiles (roles), set view / manage / publish permissions to each features and add users to respective product profiles   Define routing rules With this new version now you can define 5 types of routing logics:   Assign directly to an agent: Depending on the flow, you can directly assign a engagement always route a specific agent. You can use this option directly on the Meeting booking card and Live chat card.    Assign directly to a Team Create teams and agents to a team. Depending on the flow, you can directly assign an engagement and always route a specific team Round Robin Route visitors for meeting booking or live chat across all agents through a simple round-robin   Custom Rule Define segments/targeting leveraging lead, company attributes and assign them to agents or teams or both. This enable you to route a visitor based on their persona to an agent or team   Account Routing Identify and upload your target account and respective sales owners and route visitors coming from those targeting accounts always to the respective account owner. Manage Agents and set availability  Marketing or Sales admins can add agents and set respective permissions to access Adobe Dynamic Chat. Each agent can login set their own availability for Live Chat, connect their calendar, set availability for meetings bookings, buffer time etc   Also, admins can manage availability for all agents from one place!   New triggers, filters and trigger tokens To ensure we capture all engagement of your visitors we introduced 9 native activity types in Marketo Engage. So, every visitor engagement is captured as a lead activity and pushed into your Marketo instance in near real-time.   These native activities are available as filters and triggers in your Smart List that will help you retarget, score etc your leads based on their engagement. Attributes from these native activities can be used as trigger tokens which will enable you to create interesting moments, sales tasks/ alerts.   Chat Engagement in MSI All this conversational engagement from these activities natively will be pushed into Marketo Sales Insights panel providing the visibility of a lead engagement to sales representative in CRM       New Cards in Stream Designer To enable more robust personalized conversations following features have been added:   Live Chat Card  Enable visitor to connect with an agent and have a conversation through Live Chat cart.   Action Card Similar to hidden fields in a form, with action card you can populate any lead or company attribute with implicit values that you would like to capture against a lead record. You can add action card at any point in the conversation and update respective attribute with a value or with native tokens that would automatically populate the respective value   Interested to know more?

The next generation of Adobe Dynamic Chat has arrived!

  Why Chat for B2B? As you know well, your B2B buyers love to self-serve before engaging with your sales team, which continues to make your website one of the most critical demand-generation tools you have. But even with personalized, dynamic, and compelling content, web visitors can easily lose interest or get distracted and bounce from your site. Even if they stick around long enough to find the content they want or fill out a form, it may be several days before they hear from a sales rep (and even longer to coordinate an actual meeting). This process is riddled with potential drop-off points and doesn’t help sales and marketing capitalize on their website traffic, especially when using separate 3rd party chat tools with slow, disconnected data. Why Adobe Dynamic Chat? Adobe Dynamic Chat is an end-to-end conversational marketing solution built-in to Marketo Engage and powered by Adobe Sensei GenAI. It allows marketers and sellers to engage in conversations with customers together as one revenue team using generative AI-powered chat, live chat and conversational forms. Because Dynamic Chat is a natural extension of Marketo Engage, sales and marketing teams can setup, deliver and report on all their conversational marketing programs from the same tool and data that’s powering all other inbound and outbound engagement. The unique combination of industry-leading automation, real-time B2B data and Adobe Sensei GenAI enables B2B brands to scale personalized self-serve experiences for customers, streamline meeting bookings and pipeline for sales and maximize qualification and conversions for marketing.” Remember, you already have Dynamic Chat today!   Adobe first entered the B2B Conversation Automation market in 2022 with an entry-level version of Dynamic Chat packaged with Adobe Marketo Engage in the Select, Prime, and Ultimate packages. It offers foundational chat capabilities that helps Marketing engage visitors and streamline qualification, while building pipe with Sales as one revenue team. But we wanted to do more because we know how important chat as channel is for B2B brands. We also wanted to make sure we included generative AI into the next generation of Adobe Dynamic Chat. So we did!   What’s New? We are excited to introduce the all-new Adobe Dynamic Chat with more included features out-of-the-box, AND a new upgrade option called Adobe Dynamic Chat Prime that will include Adobe Sensei GenAI capabilities along with other exciting enterprise-grade enhancements.   Now available at no addition cost:   Guided Chats (Dialogues) Calendar Integration and Meeting bookings Document Sharing and tracking.

Blueprint Released: Offboarding | Departing User Dashboard

It happens to every system or group admin: one of your users is leaving the company, taking on a new role, or needs to switch groups. How do you find everything they own or are working on in Workfront so you can transfer ownership of their objects or reassign their work? Well, we’ve built a dashboard for this purpose! Released as a blueprint, this dashboard contains 13 reports to help you find, reassign, or otherwise manage the objects and assignments associated with a user departing your purview of Workfront. A few things to note:  The reports on the dashboard have been built to support the needs of a wide audience and it’s likely that you will need to change filters, views, and groupings on some reports to better meet your organization’s needs.  You may not need all the reports, so feel free to remove them.  All reports have tags in their descriptions for searchability: #offboarding Please note that for active project, task, and issue approvals, we’ve found that a report is not the easiest option for reassigning them from a departing user. Instead, log in as the departing user and go to My Updates. From there, choose the Delegate approvals button, pick another user, and this will reassign them all at once.   Finally, we recommend making copies of these reports before editing in case you want to go back to the original reports. This dashboard is now available to install from your blueprints. Learn how to install this dashboard from blueprints Reports Included in the Offboarding | Departing User Dashboard: Departing User Active ProjectsUse this project report to find active projects owned by the departing user by entering their name into the prompt. Departing User Open Tasks Use this task report to find open tasks assigned to the departing user by entering their name into the prompt. Departing User Open Issues Use this issue report to find open issues assigned to the departing user by entering their name into the prompt. Departing User Pending Proof Approvals Use this proof approval report to find approvals assigned to the departing user by entering their name into the prompt. Approvals Delegated to Departing User Use this user delegation report to find project, task, and issue approvals delegated to the departing user (To User) by entering their name into the prompt.

Bot Name, Bot Page Views, and Bot Occurrences Now Available in Analysis Workspace

As of June 7, 2023, improved Bot Reporting is now available in Workspace. Adobe has now introduced a ‘Bot name’ dimension shows the names of bots that were detected using Bot rules. These rules can be default IAB rules, or custom bot rules that your organization configures. It is helpful in cases where you want to learn more about what bots are visiting your site, or which bots generate the most traffic.  The Bot Name dimension is an Adobe provided component. Using the Bot Name dimension, you will see the names of the bots detected or custom bot rules supplied. Bot Name should only be used with Bot Page Views and Bot Occurrences. If this dimensions is used with any other Analytics metric, no data will result because it is unassociated with normal customer-based data in Analytics. Data processing for Bot Page Views began between February 26 and March 10, 2023; as a result, any reporting window prior to this date will not have data. The Bot Page Views metric shows the number of times a bot was set or persisted on a page. The Bot Page Views metric should only be used with the Bot Name, Page, or standard time dimensions, such as Day or Week. Bot Occurrences shows the number of hits where a bot traffic was detected. Similar to the Bot Page Views metric, the Bot Occurrences metric should only be used with the Bot Name, Page, or standard time dimensions.  Please note that this dimension automatically collects data if you have enabled Bot rules. If you have not yet enabled Bot rules, this dimension does not appear in Analysis Workspace.

What’s cooking! Share your best communication “recipes” with us today!

Good news for those familiar with our very popular Reporting Cookbook - we’re cooking up a new one!What’s a Workfront “Cookbook” you ask? It’s a collection of snackable, easily digestible, examples on different topics that you can take and test out in your own Workfront kitchen.This time we’re cooking up ideas for how Workfront System Admins communicate with their end users (think, how to share new features with users, or tips & tricks, or how to ask for feedback, etc.).There’s no “one size fits all” when it comes to communications. Some Admins communicate regularly, some only communicate when there are major changes. Some Admins communicate directly with end users, others communicate through Group Admins or SMEs. The Communications Cookbook will showcase real examples of how, when and why your peers are communicating with users. (We’ll sprinkle in some best practices along the way.)In order for this cookbook to become a family heirloom, we need YOUR examples by the end of May [DEADLINE EXTENDED] Friday, June 9, 2023!To submit your recipe, all you need to do is fill in the attached template and email it to Kristin Farwell at farwell@adobe.com. All recipes in the cookbook will be made public, so don’t include any confidential data in your screenshots, be sure to blur out names, etc.Need a little inspiration? Check out the attached example from our very own Workfront Admins at Adobe! If you have questions, drop a note below or email Kristin using the address above. So very excited to see what you all have to share!
