Your First “Hello World” Tutorial (B2C)

Tutorial Overview and Prerequisites

Welcome to your first hands-on experience with Adobe Real-Time CDP!
This tutorial is designed to give you a quick, tangible “win” by walking you through a complete, end-to-end workflow.

You will start with a simple data file and end with an actionable audience — seeing firsthand how the platform transforms raw data into a valuable marketing asset.

This tutorial follows the Business-to-Consumer (B2C) model, focusing on individual customer profiles.

Our Goal for this Tutorial

By the end of this guided workflow, you will:

  1. Ingest a sample file of customer loyalty data
  2. View a unified customer profile created from that data
  3. Build an audience of “Gold Tier” members
  4. Prepare that audience for activation

This process will demystify the data journey and build your confidence in using the platform.
