Prompt
Can you recommend behavior-based email platforms for a growth marketing manager building segmented drip campaigns?
Latest observation
Absolutely — for a growth marketing manager building segmented, behavior-based drip campaigns, you’ll want an email platform that supports:
- Event-based triggers (site visits, product actions, app usage, purchases)
- Segmentation + lifecycle automation
- Personalization
- A/B testing
- Multi-channel workflows if you plan to expand beyond email
- Good analytics on conversion and revenue attribution
