The Anatomy of a Campaign Effectiveness Report
Engagement Summary
This section provides you high-level cumulative statistics and charts to show you how many people are interacting with your emails, and when they are interacting with your email, for a specified time frame of a campaign.
By default, the statistics represent the cumulative totals from all email templates in your campaign. The table below describes the statistics in the report.
Statistic
|
What It Represents
|
Delivered |
The ratio of total emails delivered to total emails sent. "Delivered" in this sense means DemandCenter sent an email to a mail server and the message was accepted. |
Opened |
The ratio of total emails that were opened to total emails delivered. "Opened" in this sense means that a prospect received and downloaded images in your email. A prospect that merely views an email preview in their inbox does NOT count as "Opened". |
Clicked |
The ratio of total emails that had at least one click-through to total emails delivered. "Clicked" in this sense means that at least one link in an email message was clicked on by the recipient. |
Engagement Over Time (toggle)
A smooth line graph displays the the total number of email engagements that occurred on a given day. The chart is useful for determining which days are optimum days to send emails.
You can click on the email engagements (Opened, Clicked, Pages Visited, Opted-Out, Unsubscribed) to remove them from the chart.
Time of Engagement (toggle)
A heat map displays the total number of clicks that occurred during a specific hour. The heat map can help organizations get a sense of when prospects are clicking on their links. As a result, organizations can decide when it is the optimum time to send emails to achieve maximum engagement.
You can hover over the specific hour to see the total number of prospects that clicked on your emails.
Breakdown by Email Template (click-through)
This section lists the individual stats of each template that was sent from your campaign.
- Click on the arrow to get a breakdown of all links in your email template and how many prospects that clicked on that link.
- Click on a template name to bring up an individual Effectiveness Report for that individual template.

Form Submits |
If any eTrigue Standard Forms were submitted during a visit session that followed a click on a link in your email, the forms will be listed here along with the total number of prospects that submitted the form and the total number of form submissions. |
Asset Downloads |
If any assets were downloaded during a visit session that followed a click on a link in your email, the assets will be listed here along with the total number of prospects that downloaded the asset and the total number of asset downloads. |
Page Views |
This section lists pages:
Next to each page, you will find: the total number of unique prospects that visited that page, a cumulative count of how many times that page was viewed, and the total amount of time that all prospects spent on that page. |
Deliverability & Lost Prospects
This section provides a high-level look at the deliverability of your email and shows you how many prospects that were "lost". Lost are prospects that will no longer receive emails from you in the future because these prospects either opted-out from all emails, unsubscribed from a single email subscription, or may have bounced. For more information about bounces, see Bad Email.
