Problem
When registration, attendance, consent, and campaign engagement are disconnected, teams lose visibility into participant behavior and struggle to automate useful follow-up.
Approach
Designed a flow that normalizes event registration data, maps it to CRM and subscriber profiles, preserves consent signals, and produces audience and reporting datasets for follow-up campaigns.
Architecture
The approach stages form and event data, reconciles participant identity against CRM/subscriber records, applies validation and consent rules, and publishes downstream datasets for Salesforce Marketing Cloud journeys and analytics.
Tools
Outcome
- Improved handoff between event operations, CRM, and marketing automation
- Reduced manual spreadsheet-based audience preparation
- Created cleaner reporting around registration, attendance, and follow-up
- Supported more relevant post-event journeys and segmentation
Lessons learned
- Event data is most valuable when it is modeled as a lifecycle signal, not a one-time list.
- Follow-up automation improves when registration, attendance, and CRM context are connected early.
