🎯Goal
Make it easy for sales and account teams to generate polished, personalized content for each prospect or account by filling out a simple form. This removes manual editing, keeps messaging consistent, and helps teams deliver tailored collateral faster.
Before you begin
This playbook is designed to spark ideas and provide the practical details you need to understand how a campaign will play out - what’s supported, how it functions, and what to plan for. Pick the steps that fit your objectives, and mix or adapt approaches from other playbooks to create campaigns that suit your goals and tech stack.
This diagram presents a high-level overview of the playbook, illustrating each step and the integrations supported along the way. The article then explores each step in more detail.
Step 1: Create content in Turtl
Start by building the content you want to personalize, this could be a sales proposal, a post-call follow-up, or a product overview. Treat it as your base template. It should include the core messaging, visuals, and structure that will later be tailored for each account or contact.
Use Hatch AI to speed up creation and refinement, helping you draft, rewrite, translate and localize, and keep content on brand as you build. The stronger and more complete this base asset is, the more effective your personalization will be later.

Step 2. Set up your personalization form
Prepare your content for personalization by deciding which elements should change for each account or contact. This might include adding the customer’s name on the cover, pulling in the sales rep’s details, showing or hiding pages based on interests, or importing a custom pricing table from a CSV.
Once you’ve identified where relevance matters most, configure personalization so the base asset can be used by your wider team. Mark variable text or visuals with personalization tokens, and apply page rules that show or hide sections based on contact attributes - ensuring each reader only sees what’s relevant to them.
A personalization form then acts as the control layer for the base asset. This is what your team completes to generate personalized versions, defining which data replaces each token and which page rules are applied.
When the form is ready, publish the content and run through it once yourself to confirm everything personalizes correctly.

Step 3: Empower your team
Once the document is published, your front-line teams simply log into Turtl, fill out the personalization form, and generate a tailored version for each prospect or account whenever they need.
They never touch the base template, so everything stays consistent. Turtl takes the form inputs and applies them automatically to the base asset, producing a ready-to-share personalized content.

Step 4: Share with target contacts
Now that each contact has their own personalized asset, the focus shifts to distribution and visibility. If you’re sharing content with contacts that already exist in your CRM, it’s helpful to ensure engagement in Turtl is attributed to an individual contact within the Analytics Dashboards.
Once engagement is attributed to specific contacts in Turtl, you can:
See exactly who’s reading within Turtl Dashboards
Send engagement data back into your CRM or MAP
Enrich contact records with real buying signals, not assumptions
There are two ways to identify Known Readers in Turtl:
Use Tracking URLs Encourage your team to append a Tracking URL to the end of each personalized URL. When a reader clicks the link, they are reliably resolved to the correct contact in Turtl.
Enable automatic identification via your CRM integration. If you have an integration set up with HubSpot, Marketo, or Pardot, Turtl can automatically identify readers without using Tracking URLs - we call this intent data matching. While identification isn’t guaranteed, it’s a helpful fallback when Tracking URLs aren’t consistently used.
If you choose not to identify readers in Turtl, you’ll still be able to see engagement for each personalized asset in the Personalization Dashboard. However, you won’t get contact-level attribution or CRM enrichment, which limits how actionable that insight is.
This step ensures your personalized content doesn’t just look relevant, but feeds directly into follow-up, prioritization, and pipeline decisions.

Step 5: Learn about your audience
As people read your personalized content, their activity flows straight into your Turtl Dashboards.
For this playbook, you'll see three types of audience data:
Known Readers: If you used either of the methods in the previous step, Turtl can match the engagement back to specific CRM contacts. They’ll appear as Known Readers in your dashboards.
Unknown Readers: If you’re not identifying Known Readers in Turtl, you’ll still see engagement tied to each personalized Doc, just without a named contact.
Accounts [Coming soon]: Soon you’ll be able to view engagement at the account level, not just by individual readers. Turtl will automatically detect accounts using IP data, giving you visibility into which companies are interacting with your content, even when individual contacts aren’t tracked.
This step gives you clarity on whether your personalization is resonating, and where to focus follow-up, sales outreach, or optimization next.

Step 6. Monitor content performance and audience intent in Dashboards
With engagement data flowing in, Turtl Dashboards help you move from activity to insight.
Instead of guessing whether personalization is paying off, you can clearly see what content, sections, accounts and contacts are driving meaningful engagement, and which ones need adjustment. This makes it easier to prioritise follow-up, refine messaging, and improve future campaigns based on real behaviour.
Hatch AI plays a key role here, with an analytics chatbot enabling you to query and interrogate data without a heavy lift.
Key metrics to watch:
No. Personalizations Created: Adoption of personalization functionality
Top Accounts/Contacts: Personalizations with highest Avg. Read Time
Section Performance: What topics are capturing attention
Average Read Time: Depth of engagement across content as a whole
Avg. % of Doc Read: Depth of engagement / effectiveness of each chapter
By reviewing these signals regularly, you can spot patterns early, focus effort where it matters most, and make informed decisions about what to repeat, refine, or retire.

Step 7: Sync intent data to external platforms

At this point, your personalized content is generating intent you can act on.
By syncing Turtl engagement data into your existing platforms, you make that insight available where teams already work, so it can inform prioritisation, outreach, and targeting without manual effort.
Turtl supports syncing intent data into platforms such as HubSpot, Marketo, Pardot, Demandbase, and 6sense. Exactly what can be synced depends on the specific platform.
Contact-level data: If you’ve identified Known Readers, send signals like Engagement Score and Topics of Interest straight to the matching contact record in your CRM or MAP. This helps you prioritise follow-up and tailor outreach.
Account-level data: Add your ABM tracking script to push high-level engagement signals, such as page views and link clicks, back into your ABM platform.
This step ensures the effort you put into personalization directly strengthens lead scoring, account prioritization, and campaign targeting across your stack.

Once you have Known Readers in Turtl, those readers are matched to CRM contacts, and those contacts are linked to opportunities, Turtl’s Revenue Dashboard can show how content engagement aligns with pipeline movement and closed revenue.
The Revenue Dashboard helps you understand what content influence progression, acceleration, or conversion, giving you a clearer picture of where content supports revenue, rather than relying on assumptions or last-touch attribution.
The Hatch AI chatbot within the analytics dashboards helps you to explore this data more deeply, identifying patterns in what’s performing, surfacing successful approaches, and highlighting where content is having the greatest commercial impact. These insights make it easier to double down on what works and refine what doesn’t.
This final step closes the loop, linking personalization efforts back to measurable business outcomes.
