What is attribution and why does it matter?

7


Content Attribution • What

– The definition and management of how you describe catalog / content items – Obvious examples: Product: name, description, color, price – Not so obvious: featured (T/F), best use (i.e. cold weather), popularity (1-10), etc.

• Why? – Having meaningful attributes attached to these items allows you to effectively target

the correct content to designated users • Most Common Challenge: Dirty Data

– Allows you to define groups or collections of items based on the attributes (i.e. featured products)

– In general, makes writing personalization rules easier

Integrations bring over basic attributes

Additional attributes

managed via BCC

Index process runs so Endeca has all attributes (ATG &

Endeca are in sync)

Now ATG and Endeca have all the info they need to deliver a

personalized experience (create targeting rules, search rules, etc.)

Defined Segments in the BCC will automatically appear in

If your application requires functionality that is not covered by the core OOB cartridges, you can extend existing cartridges or develop your own.

* Cartridges implemented in Commerce Reference Store

• RecordSpotlight

• RefinementMenu

• ResultsList

• RichTextMain

• RichTextSecondary

• SearchAdjustments

• SearchBox


Experience Manager – Simple Example • Page – select a page

– Default “Search Results” page ( or any page)

• Cartridge – select a cartridge – “RecordSpotlight” cartridge – “ResultsList” cartridge

• Merchandiser – Perform a Task – Boost and Bury

• Merchandisers can write rules leveraging attributes to meet business needs and drive customer engagement – Dynamically (not manual) move featured products to the top of a result set – Dynamically (not manual) move low inventory items to the bottom of a result set – NOTE: Can always override your dynamic selection rule

Best Practices

18


Content Attribution Strategy Best Practices Data Sources, Curation, and Delivery • Have the right attributes to meet customer needs

– If they don’t exist, work with IT to create them

• Ensure the process to curate data is efficient – BCC: csv spreadsheet import/export – BCC: Multi-edit – Automate as much as you can vs. hand curate

• Example: Inventory rule to automatically bury products with low inventory – An integration with inventory system – Rule written in Experience Manager

• Example: “Most Popular” concept – Platform automatically updates “Most Popular” attribute of the content with each user click – Take advantage of implicit behavior

19


Content Attribution Strategy Best Practices Data Sources, Curation, and Delivery • Be aware of how attributes are defined regarding their data type

– Data types like strings, integers, and booleans are easy to write rules against – Complex data types make writing rules more difficult (and sometimes impossible)

• Example: Order object with many sub-objects

– Work with IT to strike a balance between flexibility and ease of rule management

• Metadata values – Example: Product Color (Black, Ebony, Onyx, etc.)

• Understand how to write rules to meet business requirements – More info in the next session on “targeters”
