Product recommendations

Learn how to create your own product recommendation messages using Adoric.

In order to create your product recommendation message follow these steps:

Go to settings > catalogs > Create Catalog.
Add your catalog's URL to import your products and set automatic catalog updates. You can also upload your catalog manually. Try adding your Facebook catalog feed or Google merchant catalog feed. 

💡  The feeds we support are CSV (UTF-8, UTF-16) files, XML files(Atom 1.0,[0.3](https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/160598?hl=en&ref_topic=2473799) and RSS 2.0, 1.0). Required fields: id, title, description, link, availability, image link, price.



If your catalog is supported by Adoric you will be able to create your recommendations. On the approval message the number of products imported will appear, some of the products, and the next action to take. Click on "Go to recommendations" to review your options. 



Click on "Create recommendation now" and choose your preferred catalog.
For now, you are able to create three types of product recommendations: Random products, First products (in the catalog), and Recently viewed. 

If you wish to create a Bestsellers recommendation or Most viewed hover over these options and connect to your Google Analytics account.



Add any product recommendation to your Adoric campaign.

Go to your campaign or create a new campaign. Click on elements (left sidebar) and add "E-commerce" element.
