All widgets created in Personalize Pro, except polling, can be used within the rule builder. Outlined below are some popular Rule Builder use cases.

Weather targeted content

Use weather rules to display different images, content or products based on the weather at location of open. For example, show dresses when it’s warm and sunny at open location and show jackets when it’s cold and raining. 

Time/day parted content 

Display content relevant to the time of day that the email is opened. Split the day into sections and show relevant offers or content based on that time window. Display different content on different days of the week automatically.  

Geofence

Drop a pin and draw a radius. Define what content is shown to anybody that opens within that radius. Used frequently for store specific promotions.
