To effectively use the VLOOKUP function in your email marketing strategy, you need to understand its syntax: =VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num, [range_lookup])
lookup_value: The value you want to search for. table_array: The range of cells that contains the data. col_index_num: The column number from which to retrieve the value. range_lookup: An optional argument that specifies whether you want an exact match (FALSE) or an approximate match (TRUE).
