This article explains the purpose of account managers and how to create them in the Content Catalyst platform
What are account managers?
Account managers are the key sales contacts for accounts. Their contact information is shown on report marketing pages, and wherever a Contact account manager box is set up to show (e.g. homepage, search page).
This helps users contact the correct member of your sales department easily and efficiently. Each Contact account manager box supplies the account manager’s information, and a button to Contact now.
When clicked, this prompts a user to fill in their message in a popup and send it directly to the account manager’s email.
🔔 The contact pop-up includes a user’s contact details, a subject drop-down (which can be customized by following contacting us here), and a box for the message text.
Creating an account manager
