July 14, 2021

Following its Series C round, ActiveCampaign, the leader in Customer Experience Automation (CXA), revealed that its customers have saved 38.4 million hours over the last 12 months using its automations. The average business saved 20 hours per month when leveraging its automation tools, translating to more time spent on building 1:1 relationships with their customers, and ultimately powering their growth, which proves the power of ActiveCampaign CXA.

To ensure businesses of all sizes are successful with automations, ActiveCampaign continued to invest in its education, support and content in Q2 2021. The support organization’s headcount will increase by 60% in 2021 to offer even more real-time support to customers. This investment also included an expanded automation library, now boasting more than 600 recipes that allow customers to easily implement automation without needing advanced technical skills. The newest 50 recipes are some of the most popular recipes among consumers localized in Portuguese, French, Italian, German, and Spanish. These recipes include Welcome Series, Abandoned Cart, Pre-Webinar Drip and Post Webinar Follow-Up and Contact Last Engaged Date all critical in creating ideal customer experiences. By localizing the recipe languages, ActiveCampaign is fulfilling its ongoing commitment to customer success around the world.

Offering further support, ActiveCampaign built out its customer experience across several languages, including English, Portuguese, French, Italian, German and Spanish. Now, nearly all of ActiveCampaign’s users can seamlessly integrate new services into their campaigns and better connect with customers in their local language.
