What is a Customer Information Question?

A Customer Information question within a Journey Template asks the customer several demographic information: basic contact information (first/last name, phone number, email) and service address. 

Some key things to know about a Customer Question are:

  • is that it has two options, Basic Contact Information and Address
  • The Address option allows you to specify whether you will show the customer a map option only or a map option which can be manually enhanced in modifiable postal address fields.
  • The postal address option cannot stand alone.  That is, the map option must be selected if you want to provide the postal address option.
  • You cannot create/save a Journey Template in BidClips without having a Basic Contact Information option included in the template, and it is always mandatory.

Creating a Customer Information Question

While in Journey Template edit mode:

  • Use the right scroll button to reach the end of the Journey Template
  • Click on the "+" slide
  • Select the Customer Question type from the available options, and click 'ADD'.

Information Type:

After adding the Customer Question, you will be presented with two options in the Information Type section: Basic Contact Information or Address.  Select one of the two options from the drop-down list.  Both options are described in more detail below.

Basic Contact Information

The first option is “Basic Contact Information”, this option will require the customer's first/last name and either a phone number or email to be provided as a Journey Template answer.  Having a Basic Contact Information question type is a prerequisite for saving the Journey Template.

Address

The second option is the “Address” option. This option will cause a different list of properties to appear:

  • Address Type
  • Address Title
  • Map/Postal Address Options
    • Postal Address: Manually entered by users and will read as an address text.

    • Map Location: This will show the location on a map.
