Editor's Notes
- Opening Audio for Session & its Subtopics to be recorded Under this topic, we will make the connection between Business Strategy & Web Analytics. Typically Business Strategy determines what data needs to be collected and analysed- thus determining the digital measurement model.
- To start off, we get to define what are some possible objectives of Business strategy – regardless of the nature of industry all businesses try to differentiate from Competitors, build larger customer base & achieve above industry standard Revenue / Profitability & RoI. These are determined by multiple attributes – Customer Expectations & Needs, Relative Competitor Strengths, Execution Timeframe, etc. Could you come up with 3 business functions that would be involved in the Strategic Outcomes listed here? Also how would you differentiate any of these from a business goal of achieving a sales target in the next 3 months?
- Here are some sample Business Strategies – along three dimensions – Brand Positioning, Customer & Cost Leadership. What could be the reason companies do not execute on all three at the same time? Would you choose one over the other? If so, which one? Can you name the strategies of some of the larger Brands or two strategies adopted by your company?
- The approach we would take here is to map Business Strategy to Business Indicators and then subsequently identify Web Metrics that help measure these Indicators. Our example here is based on an ecommerce retailer. Here we have a set of business indicators for this ecommerce retailer looking to raise business performance by offering value for money products with great customer experience. Lower selling Costs allow them to maintain maximum possible margins – when offering lowest prices. Also the ability to take advantage of lower prices to increase Order Value / Items sold helps offset fixed costs faster. One aspect of Service measured here is to manage superior site speed and help visitors navigate to product information / shopping cart faster. (question in slide) What does Cross Sell / Up Sell do? Which strategy is adopted by your business? How well is it working?
- When a website owner decides to leverage the low cost Natural Search (also called Organic Search) route, the Business Indicators to be tracked are as follows: Visits (of either category), Costs – of Visits & Transactions, Revenue per Transaction, Conversion Rates & Revenues. While these are Performance metrics, it is also vital to track Failure Points / Catalysts for achieving higher performance – 1. Is the page optimized to attract high quality visits (optimization refers to bringing in high quality visitors with the intent to learn more about Jigsaw, compare products / course fees , enroll for a course, etc. ) 2. Are visitors able to review products and purchase without website issues, etc. Metrics on Landing Page Engagement like Micro conversions, measuring Page Monetary Value, Conversion Funnel Data, etc provide insights that help catalyze business performance.
- Let me elaborate on what these Visitor / Website Engagement metrics are…I had referred to these as micro-conversions. So let’s review this page on Jigsaw Academy website. One interaction I see is the Log In page
- The other interaction I see are Clicking on Need Help. “Log-In” and “Help” are Valuable Website Interactions that encourage Visitors to engage actively (part of website goal)
- Here is another one - Contact Jigsaw Academy for additional information – All of these interactions help a visitor learn more about the company and its products – extremely valuable from a website engagement perspective.
- Read and review Jigsaw’s Products & Services – This interestingly is the first step in the Path to Purchase – Get to know the products & services catalog
- Various programs offered by Jigsaw are listed here – by Customer Category (Advanced or Beginners) and Course Format (like Videos). So let me choose the Foundation Course here
- I get to know the specific of these program and the value it offers – and I now click on the Enroll Now button – This is when I show clear intent to purchase the product
- After clicking Enroll now, I get to the Product Schedule (or in eCommerce Product Lingo – SKUs) page – and need to make a choice in terms of what would be a convenient program start date & duration
- After selecting the appropriate program I now enter the Shopping Cart section – where I sign up for the program at a specified price and avail of discount if any. After entering the information I move to the Cart Check Out page – where I make the Payment. This completes the path to purchase.
- In Analytics Reporting – I get to see the Page Views for Foundation Analytics – the product we had purchased
- In Analytics Reporting – I get to see the Page Views for Foundation Analytics – the product we had purchased
- Among many other pages, I see that this page has 30,271 page view – the largest among all pages of the website. This is the first step in the Path to Purchase as we had discussed.
- The Funnel Report looks at Completions from the Product category – Foundation Analytics – with payment Completions being the last step in the Path to Purchase. It is also possible to track the intermediate steps and analyze where people drop off before they make the purchase. This analysis would offer insights to improve conversion rates – increase the %ge of Folks who visit the Foundation Analytics Page and end up making the Payment.
- Now let me introduce a concept known as Web Analytics Measurement Models – primarily track business performance by defining KPIs and capturing insights from Data Reporting & Analysis.
- The Measurement model flows from the strategic objectives of the company. Once a quantified strategic goal is identified to be executed over a definite timeline, we can break this down into trackable Business Metrics. Once Performance Indicators are identified we need to tag Validated Web Analytics Metrics that will provide insights to achieve strategic objectives.
- Let’s line up the Business Objectives into 4 categories – Marketing, Sales, Brand & Customer Experience
- The metrics that would indicate business performance are listed here – can you match these against the strategic goals identified?
- Primary Marketing Goal is to create and sustain Brand Awareness amidst competing products. Sales is determined by Revenues at Product, Category, Geography & Aggregate Customer levels. The power of the brand is determined by the Gross margin the company is able to hold on to compared to competitors with similar products / services. Why do you think Gross Margin would be a good indicator of Brand Strength? --- because customers are ok purchase your product without discount – compared to competitors – because of the superior value it offers. Customer Experience is primarily indicated by Repeat Purchases and Referrals – Keep in mind except for the Marketing Objective, all other Indicators are monetized.
- One important validation required here is whether the right metrics are being tracked at both the Performance Indicators and Web Analytics Reporting levels. The standard validation techniques include Whether these metrics represent Functional Objectives in a monetized form Whether these capture at great detail & accuracy what is happening to the business Do they explain what is going right and help spot negative trends? Do they guide your course of action – by identifying potential Cause & Effect, etc
- Let’s see how to create a Measurement Framework for a well defined marketing objective – in this situation I would like to Build a high converting natural search traffic. The Website Indicators that indicate progress here are Visits (by Visitor category) – Conversion Rate that indicates quality of visits & intent of visitors, Cost & Revenue at Aggregate & Per Transaction levels. Secondary monitors that could indicate what is going right / what is trending negative would be Optimization parameters like Landing Page Micro Conversions, Page Value, etc. Another indicator here will be the Conversion Funnel Fallouts and how do we plug the drop-offs. Achieve 50% revenue growth from Natural Traffic in 2 years Break this down into Business Performance Indicators – Tracking Revenue from New and Existing Customers via Organic Channel – why do I do this? Need to understand maximum potential of each customer category. Can also segment by Geography, Acquisition Channels (Paid, Direct or Organic), Purchase Behavior (Discount Seeker, Seasonal, etc) Cross Sell & Upsell for the Organic Channel Keyword Expansion for Natural Search Driving Brand Term Search via Awareness Campaigns in the Social Channels
- How do I track failure points – at an aggregate level you need to understand whether your customers are engaging at a higher rate over a period of time – this is measured using a monetized number arrived at by multiplying Unique Page Views with Page Value. This is a report that is typically provided within a standard tool like Google Analytics.
- Here is a trend chart of Page Value over a period of time…for a threshold daily visitor traffic, when website product pages are continuously optimized for meeting Visitor Intent better how would you expect the page value to trend? We should see a constant increase in Page Value – over time. As long as this is an uptrend, I would know that my organic revenue increase strategy is going in the right direction.
- Closing Audio to be recorded Under this topic we have discussed: the connection between Business Strategy & Web Analytics. How Business Strategy determines what data needs to be collected and analysed, and we looked at digital measurement models. That’s it for this topic. For any queries, do email us at info@jigsawacademy.com Thanks!
- While we have already covered what measurement models are and why they are essential, it is important to understand how to create a measurement model.
- Opening Audio for Session & its Subtopics to be recorded Under this topic, we will be looking at: Identifying & Agreeing on Performance Indicators Web Analytics Implementation Framework Reporting Business Insights Highlighting Business Actionables
- Let’s consider the situation of an Online Retailer looking to be the Low Cost leader in its category. Having established its differentiator, it needs to create a Brand around this position with matching Purchase experience – in terms of merchandise and relevant cross-sell & upsell. This gets decided at CXO level and the execution passes on to the Senior executives, say a Vice President , who would head Marketing / Sales functions. Given the Low Cost positioning, it is vital to generate higher volumes via new visits, repeat purchases and higher order value – hence the approach to online personalization that generates “high retention”. These would become my Marketing goals in this case. In terms of Performance Indicators that need to be targeted, monitored and achieved I now would look at lowering my acquisition costs – for Visits & Transactions while maximizing order value. Allowing for the business to sell at lower price and still stay profitable.
- Once this approach is finalized by the Marketing & Sales Function, the next step is to agree on Benchmarks / Targets for the Business Targets & Indicators. 2% below market be my Low Cost Position? What should be my Acquisition cost to maintain profitability at these price points? What should be my retention levels & average order value – to achieve break-evens over the next X quarters? What are my target QoQ for these insights? Who are the folks who need to agree these are the metrics and these are the targets?
- Using the low cost online retailer as an example, here is a summary of the outcomes from Strategy to Business Indicator to Performance Measurement against Targets – captured in a measurement framework. Review this carefully and you will notice that the entire business strategy is being measured against execution on a continual basis – using this framework.
- Here is a situation where a business is looking to increase its Customer Acquisition via Organic channels – The brand search share is fairly low compared to its competitors. Less than 0.2%
- However it is encouraging to note that the Brand Search terms are increasing month over month – still not good enough to meet revenue goals. So the challenge is to find an alternate source to build revenues via Organic channels
- The focus now switches to the Generics Terms that could lead to higher conversion rates – because of better visitor quality & engagement. The Business Strategy now flows down to implementation & measurement levels as you see here == read from screen

- Now lets look at an intangible – that needs to drive quality visits that engage Visitors better and convince them to purchase. This would be the content on your site – that you need to leverage to build Organic traffic.
- It starts with creating Content with Context – across multiple video formats. How do I measure whether this content is relevant and what format engages visitors better? How do I measure visitor engagement – need to capture time on page, scroll downs, # of comments, etc Also need to measure visitor feedback on content – from a sentiment perspective to understand relevance better. From the demand generation angle, I need to make sure my content appears right at the top of search engine results – these again can be trended for improvement over a period of time. The outcome of all of these efforts would be the total # of visits, Returning visitors and actual revenue generated via leads & sales. Thus an intangible can actually be metricized and tracked for monetary performance using a measurement framework loosely outlined here. We can certainly do an independent exercise to gain a deeper insight into this model.

- The measurement model discussed for Content is highlighted here – All of these are metricized and when trended over time provides a good indicator of where the business is heading. “ read from slide”
- And we can measure these trends across two business performance indicators – Visitor Experience on Site and Monetization of the Organic Channel – a really cool way to measure what was seemingly intangible.
- Some possible actionables that could arise for a sub-set of the content are listed here – “read from slide”…the metrics measured are good enough to indicate potential problems and when measured at a detailed level also provide ideas for resolution.
