Micro-conversions.

• In this example, social media drives micro-conversions more effectively than primary conversions.

• Custom variables could be used to tag users who complete micro-conversions • Subsequent primary conversions can then be measured and segmented by CVar.

Remarketing via GA.

Remarketing example – path length AOV.

Remarketing example – path length AOV.

• Users on their 3rd visit to the site spend considerably more per order

• The data can be used to build a remarketing list, to retarget qualified and potentially high spending users

• This can all be done within GA

• Trial Universal Analytics – this is in BETA so more fun to follow!

• Use MCF and Attribution Modelling Tool to understand paths to conversion and full channel contribution

• Run remarketing campaigns based on visitor behaviour data from GA

• Tie micro-conversions to visitors and monitor effect on primary conversions across subsequent visits

• Move from single visit revenue to Lifetime Value. Custom variables: traditional framework; custom dimensions: Universal Analytics
