Abstract: In some embodiments, a multi-functional messaging system comprises a data collector to collect or receive product or temporal data over a network, associate the product or temporal data with a particular product, and store the product or temporal data and an association between the product or temporal data and the particular product in a database. The system also comprises a multi-channel messaging engine to generate a message for a targeted recipient based at least on one aspect of the product or temporal data stored in the database, and select a channel from a set of channels for transmission of the message to the targeted recipient based in part on a characteristic of the selected channel. In one example, a multi-functional messaging system also comprises a transaction controller to identify and present, based on a response to the transmitted message, a landing page to the targeted recipient, the landing page associated with the product or temporal data and including a transaction flow initiator relating to the particular product, and guide the targeted recipient through at least a portion of an initiated transaction flow.
