a6sense provides Audience Workflow templates for common workflow scenarios. The templates are starting points for customizing your own workflows.
You can easily modify the templates by configuring nodes, changing third-party platforms, deleting nodes, or adding nodes.
Every workflow starts with a segment.

To use the Audience Workflow templates:
From the ABM menu, select Audience Workflows.
From the Workflows List, at the top right corner click Create.

The following sections describe each template.

Re-engage Dormant Audience template
The Re-engage Dormant Audience template helps you contact accounts that have not been recently active. It evaluates whether audiences have engaged in certain activities and if so, either sends an email or pushes a display ad.

A pre-existing 6sense Email campaign that speaks to this use case.
A 6sense Ads campaign configured specifically in this workflow.
Integration and permission to add an audience in Salesloft Cadence. You can change this to a comparable SEP.
Competitive Takeout template
The Competitive Takeout template uses accounts that are researching your competitors and targets them with competitive ads. It looks at whether accounts are in the late or early stage, and whether there was research conducted (using keywords) about competitors. The workflow pushes late-stage accounts to a Salesloft campaign. It pushes early-stage accounts to a 6sense display ad campaign. If accounts respond to a display ad, the workflow pushes them to a Marketo campaign.
Prerequisites (customizable)

Integration and permission to add an audience in Salesloft Cadence. You can change this to a comparable SEP.

Full Funnel Engagement template
The Full Funnel Engagement template splits accounts from segment according to early or late stage and automates follow-up activities.
The workflow pushes early-stage accounts to both a 6sense display ad campaign and to a Marketo as a list. If the account engages with the display ad, the workflow pushes it to a campaign. If the account does not engage, the workflow pushes it to a LinkedIn campaign and removes it from the 6sense ad campaign. If the account engages with LinkedIn, the workflow pushes it to a Conversational Email campaign. If the account did not engage with LinkedIn, the workflow removes it from the LinkedIn: Early Stage list.
The workflow pushes late-stage accounts to both an SEP campaign and a 6sense display ad campaign, plus it finds out how many contacts from that account are in the CRM. If there are less than 10 contacts in the CRM, the workflow purchases contacts and saves them to the CRM.

Prerequisites (customizable)
A 6sense display ads campaign configured specifically for this workflow.

Drive Event Attendance template
The Drive Event Attendance template helps promote an upcoming webinar.
The workflow checks whether accounts are a good profile fit, strong or moderate. If either, the workflow pushes a 6sense display ad campaign and a Marketo campaign. Then it waits and performs the same test again. If a strong fit, the workflow removes accounts from the display ad and Marketo campaigns and pushes them to a Salesloft campaign for last-minute pricing. If a moderate fit, the workflow removes accounts from the display ad and Marketo campaigns and pushes them to a LinkedIn campaign for last-minute pricing.
