A nurturing campaign is where we use the data gathered from the user's behavior to deliver timed and targeted information that will help guide the prospect/customer through the buying process. We leverage marketing automation to send series of emails to targeted audience with the objective of building relationship and to move them to next stage of the buyers’ journey.

Following are the steps that are carried out to generate tracking URL:



Notice the channels checkbox option in the above image, for nurture we will use only 3 channels. They are:
Email, Oracle Web and Sales evite.
5. After entering the Page URL and selecting the related channels, select generate option to generate tracking URL
Email / Evite Tracking URLs:
To generate the complete tracking URL there are three levels that is to be selected and along with it standard free text is used to make the URL unique.





Share URL, secondary target and cross promotion for landing pad:
To generate the share link for landing pad there are two levels that is to be selected and along with it standard free text.



- LPD#NLP1, 2, 3 etc.
- For Ungated LP : LPD#UGNLP1, 2, 3 etc.
EX: 1. &src1=:ow:lp:sh:em::NLP1&intcmp=BUMK161115P00032:ow:lp:sh:em::LPD100635601NLP1
&src1=:ow:lp:sh:em::NLP2&intcmp=BUMK161115P00032:ow:lp:sh:em::LPD100635601NLP2
If the landing pad URL is present in the secondary module those are called as secondary target and other than secondary module if the landing pad URL is present, those LPs are cross promotional.
Secondary Target:
For secondary target the level 1 would be same, that is, landing page and the level 2 must be selected as Secondary Target/Offer

Cross Promotion:
The task of creating an asset, generating the segment list and launching the campaign is shared between the delivery team and the list management team.

Adding an LP asset to the Canvas
The campaign canvas is where we drop all of the elements of your campaign. To add a landing pad to the campaign canvas, upload it into Eloqua, drop it on the canvas and then configure it.
Select or search for the campaign in Eloqua to arrive at the appropriate campaign canvas.
Follow these instructions to add a landing pad.
Adding the form to the canvas
A form is a web interface that collects information from registrants. It can also be used as a questionnaire or survey. Users might complete a form to get access to a white paper or other asset, or they might complete a form to register for an event.
There are different types of forms:
The forms and landing pages of a campaign must be linked by dropping them on the canvas. This ensures all the reporting metrics (landing page visits, number of forms completed by customer and so on) are captured for that campaign.
Below are the steps to add form into campaign canvas:
NOTE:
The Email and LPD which has been uploaded into Eloqua must go through quality check, without the QA approvals the delivery team cannot launch the campaign.
In the GMSS portal, the delivery team will raise a DQA request, one in SEV and one in LPD request. The QA team will close the LPD request and all the necessary or related comments are updated in the DQA request of SEV.
