In the dynamic world of B2B business, staying ahead of the competition requires efficient automation strategies and personalized customer engagement. That’s why we’re excited to introduce an automation trigger that will completely change the way you manage your accounts and automate workflows in ActiveCampaign. Say hello to the first-of-its-kind, Account Field Changes Trigger – a powerful automation trigger that empowers B2B businesses to kick off automations based on changes to any account fields. 

How does this automation trigger work?

Marketers and sellers alike can use the Account Field Changes trigger to automatically kick off a number of workflows and personalize communications at scale based on changes to any account fields. 

Whether you’d like to get a notification when a contact associated with an account’s lead score meets a specific threshold, or send a message to an account decision maker when you get new contact information– This trigger empowers you to reach targeted account contacts at the right time. Improving overall account-based processes and outreach, increasing engagement, and forging stronger and more profitable B2B relationships.

This update also streamlines the management of one-to-many relationships between accounts and contacts because you can now effortlessly add multiple contacts associated with a single  account (or deal) to your automations, enabling precise targeting and efficient engagement on a larger scale. Furthermore, this enhanced flexibility extends to automations triggered by Account or Deal field changes, allowing multiple contacts to participate, not solely the primary contact.

The Account Field Changes Trigger opens up endless possibilities:

  1. Targeted Prospecting: Send prospecting emails to contacts associated with a target account anytime you add an Account’s industry, update a primary or secondary contact’s info, or update any custom field specific to your business.
  2. Instant notifications and task assignments to sales and marketing: Assign tasks to all deals or contacts associated with an account based on any field updates that support your workflow. 
  3. Consistent Field Updates: Maintain data consistency by updating specific fields across all contacts associated with an account.
