Exactly! Behavioral tags are used to categorize users based on their actions, like what emails they open or what products they view. This allows us to send targeted messages. For instance, if someone checks out a specific product multiple times but doesn’t buy, we can tag them and send a reminder email. Remember the acronym TAG: Track, Analyze, and Guide!
