Goals - Note Applied

A note template is used to record a personal interaction or event related to an individual contact record. Note templates save time by reducing or eliminating manual follow-up changes. Note templates can also be used to initiate automation with Note Template Goals.

Users can manually add notes to a contact history to document specific interactions such as a phone call, appointment, or meeting. 

• Notes include a date stamp and a description of the interaction. 
• Interactions can satisfy a goal in an automation. 
• If a personal interaction has more than one possible outcome, then create multiple goals, each with a unique note assigned to it. 
• Users can use a note to satisfy a purchase goal if they do not process purchases online. 
• Notes that satisfy a goal are available to users after the goal is configured and the automation is published.
• A note can be assigned to only one goal. You cannot reuse automations.
