Here are 3 genius types of automation workflow from Atom8 that you definitely should use to control your store’s campaign activities.
Schedule banner ads publication
Banner ads are an important part of marketing for any store both online and offline. However, they are not fixed all the time and are changed regularly depending on the products and campaigns of the store. To effectively control the banner ads publication, this workflow seems to be an ideal option with a few clicks away:

- Choose “Content” as Data filter
- Select the banner available in your BigCommerce store to publish
- Set “Delay” time – in which your banner will be displayed
- Unpublish banner being displayed on the storefront
- Click “Next” to move to the workflow settings then “Save” everything to get your workflow ready.
Schedule a promotion campaign
Using the same trigger, the workflow used to schedule a promotion campaign also starts with defining time to run. Then, make sure the Data filter is “Product” before setting conditions for the action. You can run a promotion on a certain product category, product type or inventory level. It depends on the purpose of your campaign.
In the next step, you will have 4 options to change the price. It could be reduced by % or a certain amount of $. You can also fix a sale price number or remove it after a period of “Delay” time.
Finally, determine the workflow status, name, description and activation duration in the settings before saving all the actions. Read more: Bigcommerce upsell
