Reward Interest with the Modify Contact Engagement Score Action
The Modify Contact Engagement Score action adds points to, or subtracts points from, a contact's engagement score. Use it to turn actions like clicks and replies into a number you can sort and segment by.
Settings
- Add or Subtract: choose the direction.
- Points: enter how many points to apply.
Set it up
- Open Automation > Workflows and choose a trigger, such as Email Event, Trigger Link Clicked or Form Submitted.
- Click + and choose Modify Contact Engagement Score.
- Select Add or Subtract and enter the points.
- Save the action and publish the workflow.
A simple scoring plan
- Opened an email: add 2 points.
- Clicked a trigger link: add 10 points.
- Submitted a form: add 15 points.
- Marked as spam or unsubscribed: subtract 20 points.
Create one small workflow per behavior, or branch inside one workflow with If/Else.
Using the score
Higher scores help you spot the most interested contacts. Use them to prioritize outreach, build smart lists for exclusive offers, or let an If/Else send hot leads to a rep.
Example
A contact opens a campaign email and clicks the offer link. The workflow adds 10 points, and a later branch notifies the sales rep once the score passes a threshold you choose.
Good to know: Subtract points for negative signals too, otherwise scores only climb and lose their meaning.
