The conversion metric is a vital tool to gauge how effectively your marketing campaigns contribute to revenue generation. An essential element of this metric is the attribution window, representing the timeframe when a customer's action is linked to a specific marketing touchpoint.
Attribution Window Customization:
Default: Our system uses a 5-day attribution window for email campaigns.
Customize: Easily adjust the window in your account's email settings to match your business needs.
Steps to Customize:
- Navigate to the email marketing section.
- Access email settings.
- Adjust the attribution window as per your preferences.
Why 5 Days?
Research suggests subscribers forget emails after 5 days, aligning with industry insights and ensuring a more accurate reflection of campaign impact.
Understanding Email Attribution:
Let's explore how email attribution works through an illustrative example, using the default 5-day attribution window.
Day 1: Send an email to your subscriber.
Day 3: Subscriber opens the email with a product offering.
Day 4: Subscriber revisits and makes a purchase.
In this scenario, revenue is attributed to the email campaign because the purchase occurred within the 5-day attribution window. However, it's crucial to note that if the customer were to make the purchase on day 10, it would not be attributed to the original email.
