Meet the requirements

Check if the data in your project meets the requirements. The Use Case Center lists requirements for each use case during the deployment process.

Understand the use case logic

The banner hinges on a strategy of urgency. It's triggered when a customer begins their online shopping journey. The Use Case's logic aims to prim customers to make a quick purchase by projecting the urgency of next-day delivery through a top-of-the-page banner.

The use case first detects the 'trigger', usually the customer's visit to the site. From this point, there are no wait nodes or conditions; instead, the countdown banner is instantly displayed, highlighting the urgency of the next-day delivery offer.

In terms of adjustments, several use case items can be tweaked to run this use case more effectively. These include the design and copy of the banner, the countdown time for next-day delivery, and the timing when this web layer is shown.

If you want to change the use case logic completely, you could adjust the trigger event, include wait nodes and conditions, or modify the action from showing a web layer to sending an email. This use case's functionality allows for such customization to maximize the effectiveness of your campaigns.
