Remarks

Conceptually a Customer object is the parent object of Campaign objects. Each Campaign object must be contained within a Customer object.

A customer is the owner of your marketing campaigns. A customer can be an advertiser, an agency, or yourself. Each customer can have multiple campaigns that represent different marketing programs.

Examples

public static Customer GetSampleCustomer1(MarketingContext marketingSystem)
{
  Customer cu = marketingSystem.Customers.NewCustomer();
  Guid name = Guid.NewGuid();
  cu.Name = "Cust_" + name.ToString();
  cu.ContactAddress = "6610 199th Ave NE";
  cu.ContactEmail = "zztop@msn.com";
  cu.ContactFax = "(610) 555-1212";
  cu.ContactPhone = "(819) 555-1300";
  cu.DefaultUrl = "https://example.microsoft.com";
  cu.Description = "This customer has a special place in my heart";
  cu.Industry = "SomeIndustryCode";
  return cu;
