How does Customer.io Work?

  1. Customer Activity is sent into the Customer.io Workspace in the form of Attributes, Events, Page Views, and Devices.
  2. All of that data is associated with individual customers (i.e., People in the system).
  3. People data is used to populate Segments and to build powerful Campaigns and Broadcasts that send messages to Lunchbox Customers, to Lunchbox’s System, or to other Systems.
