Reports: Report Dashboard
The Report Dashboard gives you a variety of information in graphic format about recent mailings, member lists, server performance, and sales resulting from your email marketing. Note: The Report Dashboard requires the installation of Macromedia Flash Player.
Most Recent Mailings
In the Most Recent Mailings section, you can view a variety of statistics about your recent mailings.
Date: The date the mailing was sent
Subject: The subject line for the mailing
Mailed: The number of messages that were sent.
Opens: Gives two statistics for how many of your emails were opened: the actual number, and the percentage of messages sent.
Clicks: Gives you two statistics for how many of your emails produced at least one click: the actual number, and the percentage of messages sent.
Engagement Index: Combines a number of statistics to give you an overall picture of the success of your mailing. For example, if you do two mailings that result in comparable sales volume, but Mailing A has less unsubscribes than Mailing B, Mailing A is considered a more effective mailing and will have a higher Engagement number. After you do several mailings, you can compare their Engagement figures; the higher the number, the more successful the mailing. You can customize the formula used to determine the Engagement Index.
Transactions: Shows you how many transactions resulted from the mailing.
$: Shows you how much revenue was generated as a result of the mailing.
