All proper, final query you are gonna ask your self, is that this video serving to to drive gross sales? I am certain that you’ve got been within the scenario, like I’ve, the place your boss, your consumer involves you they usually’re like, “I made a video! I am so enthusiastic about this video, I feel it ought to go in all places on the web site, and I feel it is gonna make me a lot cash.” And you are like, “Okay, certain consumer, it’s.” However possibly they’re proper, possibly it’s gonna make a bunch of cash, however you do not know for certain till you check it. How are you gonna check it?
In GA4, you possibly can create audiences, and in the event you aren’t aware of GA4 audiences, they’re nice, I take pleasure in them fairly a bit, and I’ve a Whiteboard Friday proper right here on this very website that talks about audiences, so I like to recommend checking that out as nicely. Now, what we’re gonna do is create two audiences. We now have a optimistic viewers, that is the place individuals mentioned sure to video begin. Now we’re gonna have a damaging viewers, that is the place individuals did not begin the video in any respect. After which in fact, you’d sometimes report on this in a boring desk the place you’d say that we had this variety of periods that mentioned sure to video, after which we had this variety of key occasions, conversions, and similar factor with no, this variety of periods, this variety of key occasions/conversions.
While you have a look at this information, are you able to inform straight away if the video is doing a very good job or not? No, as a result of numbers are boring, and tables are boring. As a substitute, we’re gonna take the identical trick that we had again within the first desk that we checked out, the place we as a substitute change the numbers to share of the whole. And once more, in Looker Studio, to try this, mouse over the metric, click on the pencil icon, after which select share of whole from the dropdown after which you possibly can see that we have now about the identical variety of periods, however you possibly can inform that the video is definitely doing a unbelievable job at driving extra conversion/key occasions for this explicit consumer. I assume the consumer was proper, I assume it’s a good video. You’ll be able to inform them that. However by presenting it once more as percentages, you possibly can see what I all the time name punching above your weight or punching beneath your weight as a result of I used to field, and I feel that that is an effective way to current this information. How good is that this factor doing relative to the entire? Versus specializing in these particular numbers, which can or is probably not true.
So there’s three examples for you, you possibly can take issues that you just already report on and as a substitute change the report in a directional style. I discover that this actually helps to get to these conversations about how accuracy and advert blockers and third-party consent and every part else is going on to make our analytics information inaccurate, you possibly can take these conversations and present the info in a unique gentle, and it helps take away that concept that it’s important to repair one thing to make it correct, which sadly you possibly can’t, it isn’t gonna be correct, that ship has sailed, and as a substitute, you are specializing in the info that you just do have and what you are able to do with it to generate good outcomes that helps provide you with insights in order that you recognize what to do in an effort to enhance your advertising and marketing, your gross sales, in the end no matter objective you are attempting to perform along with your web site and your online business.
I hope you discovered that useful. When you have any questions in any respect, be happy to achieve out to me, I am normally on LinkedIn, and thanks a lot for watching.
