Test how different versions of your emails are received by your target audience with A/B test segments.
Create A/B splits & send a version of your email to 'Split A', a second version to 'Split B', and send the most successful version to 'Split C'. Once the emails have been sent, you can review the sent message reports to identify which version was most successful.
All Contacts users, please see Create A/B Split Segments in All Contacts. This article is only for (legacy) Marketing Lists users.
- Go to Lists > Marketing Lists, or Other Lists > Form Submissions or Webinar Lists.
- Hover over the list you want to A/B test, and click the drop-down arrow.
- Click Generate A/B Splits.
- Enter a Name for the splits, and select the Number of Split segments that you want to create (Generally, you'll need to create multiple smaller split segments and one larger split segment).
- Enter a value for the number of records in each Split Segment
- Click Choose if you want to exclude records found in other lists or segments
- Click Next.
Send your emails to the smaller segments and wait as long as you need to generate the results you’d like. The emails could vary by subject line, color scheme, branding, header images, logos, etc.
When finished testing, send the most successful version to the largest split segment.
