Identifying visitors in CANDDi

Why is CANDDi pulling the wrong name into a visitors profile from an Anthill CRM Campaign?

If you're testing CANDDi tracked links on an email campaign from Anthill CRM and you send a "Test Campaign", this can result in the wrong name being pulled through into a visitor profile - sometimes causing multiple names / email per profile. This is caused when sent specifically as a "Test" Campaign as it selects a random recipient from your subscribers list. What does this mean for CANDDi - when generating a tracked link and sending a regular campaign the tracked link should appear similarSome readers
