CRM, email, and lifecycle system blueprint
This system resolves customer identity and uses consent, lifecycle state, purchases, browsing, loyalty, service, and campaign history to coordinate email, SMS, and other approved communications. It schedules and monitors journeys, prevents conflicting messages, attributes outcomes under the agreed method, and routes exceptions to CRM owners.
