Hey juliettec1230 - the way I think about these 3 is:
Marketing: Used to send promotions and special offers - usually sent en masse to customers.
*Operational: Used to communicate critical information to your customers - can be sent to individuals or en masse.
*Transactional: Used to communication information that relates to a purchase/transaction - sent to individuals.
*In practice I group operational and transactional together as they both bypass subscription preferences, whereas marketing requires explicit consent/opt-in.
