Using Tags, Workflows, and Campaigns for Smarter Segmentation in AEvent

Updated this week

Overview

Segmenting your audience before, during, and after an event is essential for creating personalized, one-to-one experiences instead of relying on one-size-fits-all marketing. With AEvent, you can leverage Tags, Workflows, and Campaigns to automate engagement, track behavior, and boost conversions.

These tools act as behavioral markers—allowing you to streamline communication, trigger targeted messaging, and personalize follow-ups based on how each participant interacts with your event.

Why Tags Matter in AEvent

Best Practice: Building Campaign Logic with Tags

These tags are designed to be used as triggers in your CRM (e.g., ActiveCampaign, Keap, etc.) or within AEvent’s timeline builder. Whether you're nudging no-shows to attend a replay or targeting hot leads who clicked but didn’t convert, these tags give you total control over the customer journey.

Tip: Consistency in naming and segmentation lets you reuse campaign logic across multiple events—saving hours on setup and increasing long-term ROI.
