Publish the content offer

After creating the content offer, save and publish it so that it's available for an action map to use. For more information, see Save an action.

Important

You can't edit an action after you publish it. So, if you're not ready to publish the content offer, save it as a draft. Then, you can publish it when you're ready.

Link the content offer to an action map

After you publish a content offer, link it to an action map so that your website visitors can see it. The action map defines the conditions that trigger the content offer. You can either create an action map to link the content offer to, or link it to an existing action map.

Specify when to activate the content offer and the time period during which to use the content offer. For more information about action maps, see About action maps.

Go-live checklist

When you are ready to go live with your content offer, verify the following items:

• Is the content offer action (action template) published?
• Is the action map that uses the content offer active?

After you go live, monitor your content offer's performance.

Manage a content offer

You can manage content offers in the following ways:

• Edit
• Duplicate
• Revert to draft mode
