Key Performance Metrics

Salelift tracks several important metrics to help you understand how your offers are performing:

Viewing Data

Total Views

  • Measures how many times your offers have been viewed by customers
  • High view counts with low conversions may indicate the offer isn't compelling enough

Add to Carts

  • Tracks how many times products from your offers were added to shopping carts
  • Indicates initial customer interest in your offers

Total Purchases

  • Shows the number of successful conversions from your offers
  • The ultimate measure of offer effectiveness

Financial Impact

Total Revenue

  • The total monetary value generated by your offers
  • Helps you understand the direct financial impact of your Salelift implementation

Average Order Value

  • The average amount spent per order when customers accept your offers
  • Higher average order values indicate successful upselling/cross-selling

Performance Ratios

Conversion Rate

  • The percentage of customers who purchase after viewing your offers
  • Broken down into:
    • Views to Add to Cart conversion
    • Add to Cart to Purchase conversion
    • Overall Views to Purchase conversion

Filtering and Analyzing Data

Time Period Selection

Customize your analytics view by selecting different time periods:

  • 1 day (for immediate impact analysis)
  • 7 days (for weekly performance trends)
  • 30 days (for monthly performance assessment)
  • Custom date range (for specific campaign analysis)

Analyzing Specific Offers

For deeper insights into individual offer performance:

  1. Navigate to the specific offer from the Offers section
  2. View the offer-specific analytics dashboard
  3. Compare performance across different offers to identify your most effective strategies

Interpreting Analytics Data

Understanding View-to-Purchase Funnel

The customer journey typically follows this path:

  1. View the offer
  2. Add to cart
  3. Complete purchase

Identifying where customers drop off in this funnel can help you optimize:

  • If views are high but add-to-carts are low: Improve the offer's appeal or presentation
  • If add-to-carts are high but purchases are low: Examine checkout friction or price perception

Benchmarking Performance

Compare your metrics against:

  • Your previous performance periods
  • Industry standards (average e-commerce conversion rates are typically 2-3%)
  • Your specific store's baseline conversion rate without offers

Optimizing Based on Analytics

Future A/B Testing Capabilities (Coming Soon)

We're working on bringing you powerful A/B testing features that will allow you to:

  1. Create and compare different offer variations
  2. Test different variables systematically
  3. Make data-driven decisions based on statistical significance
  4. Implement winning strategies automatically

In the meantime, you can optimize your offers by:

  1. Monitoring performance metrics for different offer types
  2. Comparing success rates across different placements
  3. Tracking which product combinations perform best
  4. Using customer feedback and engagement data

Optimizing Placement

Analytics can reveal which placement positions perform best:

  • Product page offers: Check if specific product pages convert better than others
  • Cart offers: Compare performance against checkout or post-purchase offers
  • Time-based offers: Analyze if limited-time offers outperform standard ones

Pricing Strategy Optimization

Use revenue and conversion data to refine your pricing approach:

  • If conversion rates are low, consider more attractive pricing or bundling
  • If average order value is high but conversions are low, you might be targeting the right customers but pricing too high
