By adding an aggregator to your scenario, you can combine all those prospects into a single notification - making the information more manageable while still ensuring timely alerts.

**Understanding aggregators**

Aggregators combine multiple bundles of data into a single bundle. Without an aggregator, each prospect would trigger a separate notification. With an aggregator:

- Multiple prospects are combined into one notification
- The Sales Manager receives one comprehensive alert instead of many
- The scenario consumes fewer credits

Make offers different types of aggregators:

- **Text aggregator**: Combines text with separators (the one we used in this scenario)
- **Numeric aggregator**: Performs calculations (sum, average, count)
- **Array aggregator**: Groups data into structured arrays

In our scenario, the text aggregator helps prevent notification overload by sending one organized list of all US prospects.
