Test Different Email Templates or Call Scripts on a Single Cadence Step
Use cadence steps to test different versions of an email template or a call script
to see which is most effective with target prospects. The cadence sends each email or
displays each call script according to the proportions that you choose when you build the cadence.

To use variant testing in a cadence, Allow Email Template and Call Script Variant
Testing must be turned on in Sales Engagement Setup. In most cases, this setting is turned on
by default.
From Sales Engagement Setup, turn on Allow Email Template and Call Script
Variant Testing. When managers add an email or call step to a cadence, they
can include up to three email templates or call scripts for the step. They can specify the
percentage of targets that see or hear each variant.
Create a cadence or click Modify Steps on an existing cadence record.
In the Cadence Builder, add an email or call step.
Add the first email template or call script that you want to test.
Sales reps who work with the cadence must have access to each email template or call
script.
Click Add Template Variant.
Choose the second email template or call script that you want to test.
Add a third variant if needed.
For each variant, enter the percent of emails to send or calls to make with each
variant.
The total of your split percentages must equal 100%.
Save your changes for the email or call step.
After you finish editing a new cadence, click Activate. If
you’re editing an active cadence, click Update.
Note If a sales rep
doesn’t have access to the email template that’s used for a step, an error appears in the Work
Queue and on the target record. If you reassign the target to a different user with access, the
error still appears, but the new assignee can send the email.
On the cadence record,
the Engagement tab shows the amount of target engagement for each variant on each step.
