The content of the email is based on gender.

The email is to be sent to 50% male and 50% female subscribers, but here is the bit I can't work out how to do. They also want to use 2 different subject lines based on gender and split the subject 50% across both female or male recipients, to work out which is the best subject line to use.

Can I do a 50% split for the subject using ampscript based on gender, and send the email using an AB test that is sent to say 50% male and 50% female subscribers, or is my logic out??

You may have to break "male" into one send (DE/List) and "female" into another.

FURTHER CLARIFICATION:

Below are the 4 steps available to you when you A/B test in Marketing Cloud. If you focus on steps 1 and 2, then you'll see that your only choice is to A/B test by the sending List/Data Extension. Because of that, I believe your best choice in this question would be to separate your lists based on field value (can be done using a Filter for DE's) and using two separate sends.

  • Thanks @Harley I ended doing as you suggested and creating 2 seperate address lists via filtering and then doing a A/B test for each list!
