Dimensions

A dimension is a data attribute used to categorize or filter a measure. A measure by itself has no meaning if presented without the context of a dimension.

Dimension Definition
Sent Date Day corresponding to the sent date
Message Purpose Specifies whether the message is Promotional or Transactional
Device Type Type of device used to respond to the message (for example, Mobile, Desktop, or Tablet)

Measures

A measure is a numerical measurement representing the calculations gathered from your instance and applied to your reports.

Measure Definition
Sent Number of sent messages.
Opens Number of email messages opened, including multiple opens. Learn more about tracking opens.
Clicks Count of total clicks; that is, clicks on all links in a message, including multiple clicks on the same link(s). Unsubscribes do not register as Clicks. Learn more about tracking clicks.
Conversions Number of conversion actions.
Delivered Number of successfully delivered messages (that is, Sent minus Bounced)
Unsubscribes Count of unsubscribes. Unsubscribes do not register as Clicks. Learn more about setting up the default unsubscribe action for messages. Alternatively, if you include unsubscribe code in the message footer or body, those clicks are also counted as unsubscribes.
Revenue Total revenue associated with a particular campaign launch.
Click-Through Rate (Total Clicks / Delivered) * 100%
Unsubscribes do not register as Clicks and therefore do not contribute to the calculation of Click-Through Rate, which is why a message's Click-Through Rate may be different from its Unsubscribe Rate.
Conversion Rate (Conversions / Delivered) * 100%.
Delivered Rate (Delivered / Total Emails Sent) * 100%
Open Rate (Opens / Delivered) * 100%
Unsubscribe Rate (Unsubscribes / Delivered) * 100%
Unsubscribes do not register as Clicks and therefore do not contribute to the calculation of Click-Through Rate, which is why a message's Click-Through Rate may be different from its Unsubscribe Rate. Learn more about setting up the default unsubscribe action for messages.
Revenue Per Email (Total Revenue / Total Delivered).

Performance Trend Chart

This chart trends performance metrics for email messages, including Sent, Delivered, Opens, Clicks, Conversions, Unsubcribes, and Revenues over the sent date of the message. The metrics are plotted against each other for comparison.

For a deeper message-level analysis of the trend at a specific point, click the point to drill down to the messages that contribute towards the trend.

You can also plot the performance metrics against each other for a comparison over time. To do this, select the comparison from the drop down list.

Message Exploration Chart

This chart plots the email messages by Click-Through Rate and Conversion Rate. This chart is useful for visualizing the relative performance of messages. For example, messages with high Click-Through Rates but low Conversion Rates are easily exposed and might need more analysis to understand the cause of low conversions.

For a deeper analysis of a particular message, click a bubble to drill down to the detailed message data.

To switch between the volume of delivered messages and revenue, select the option you want from the drop down list.

Performance by Message Purpose Chart

This chart shows the distribution for Click-Through Rate, Delivered Rate, Open Rate, Conversion Rate, Unsubscribe Rate, Revenue Per Email, Sent, or by the purpose of the message (either Promotional or Transactional).
