An esoteric function of the campaign builder is the ability to save different campaign model configurations. This can be helpful when reusing common elements of a campaign but other elements change. For example, seasonal promotions or a product launch. It is also helpful when innovating and improving an existing model. It allows us to safely make changes to the model that can be rolled back if necessary.

Infusionsoft Cookbook – Chapter 2.5 – Creating Tags For Database Segmentation
The more targeted and relevant our marketing is, the more effective it will be. In order to segment the database so we can be targeted and relevant, Infusionsoft uses tags. A tag can be thought of as a specific list or specific segment of people within your database. We can apply or remove a tag manually from an individual or a group of individuals. A campaign can automatically apply or remove a tag as well. Besides segmentation, a tag can route automation logic or filter a search/report. They can also be used as a goal within a campaign to start or stop it. In short, understanding how to create a tag is a critical skill for automated experience design.

Merging contact information into an automated communication can be an extremely powerful tool to create a relevant, personal experience for the recipient. It can also ruin the customer experience if not properly implemented. As a tool itself, it thrives on context and so merge fields always need to be used strategically. While this recipe specifically covers how to insert a merge field into an e-mail, the concept extends to any object with merging capabilities (tasks, letters, and so on).
