I am trying to decide how to handle Product Views on pages that are not the actual Product Detail page. We have many locations on the site that allow a user to "add to cart" from a page that is not a Product Detail page, however our implementation only captures the Product View from the Product Detail page. Wanted to see what others thought about firing Product View outside the normal Product Detail page.

It seems I'm losing my marbles here. When I use the classification rule builder, it doesn't appear to be there for me to select in the 'Set Classification As' drop down box, even though I have created a classification in Report Suite Manager. I thought maybe it could be a time problem but I have waited a few hours and it is still not there. Would you mind if I asked you a few questions?

Currently, two dimensions are visualized in two different ways (one line and one histogram) to reflect the two dimensions. The two dimensions should be visualized together. A similar view would be nice. I would like to know why you think this feature is important to you - Superimpo...

Ad fatigue—your audiences got tired with your ads. This is the simplified definition. But after observing ads for the past half a decade, I realised it is NOT the audiences that got exhausted, but the ad serving machine. Below example is an ad with media buying objective optimised for CPC.  In the above chart, here is the outline of events: Event Ads Serving Machine: Reaching Audiences Audiences: Engaging with the Ads 1 The machine is trying to reach as many audiences as possible especially during the learning phase (first seven days). Clicks ‘reward’ the machine, as seen on increasing Clickthrough rate (CTR) 2 The machine experiences ‘fatigue’ in reaching new audiences from Day 8. Audiences reached from Day 1-7 are the same audiences within the estimated pool of audiences, the proportion of clicks from impressions dropped from Day 8. 3 The machine maintained the daily Reach between Day 8-9. CTR did not stay at the same level as Day 5-7, note that

by Benjienen Toledo, @Benjienen Digital marketing may get overwhelming, and it is one that is unarguably, constantly, and brutally battered with disapprovals and subjectivity. Having experienced all facets of digital marketing from media, planning, writing, even up to technical implementations, I’ve found fulcrum in analytics. Why analytics? Let me count the ways. Analytics has depth to unearth what is fake, even if sometimes it may be hard to take. Till the last segment or granularity, it will let you see the reality. Analytics cannot be swayed by bias, emotions, nor budget. Its facts! Regardless of one’s worldview, analytics is jarring that you will pay attention even when you don’t want to. Here are three reasons why Analytics: Not Content: Content writing requires constant inspiration. Munching tons of words per minute to expand your vocabulary and get in the motion. It’s synonyms and antonyms are endless, but still leave you utterly speechless. Not Media Management: Media bu

Why do you download Adobe Analytics data to csv and analyze? This was the top question I’ve received during a recently concluded Adobe Analytics Champions' Tips & Tricks Webinar. During my sharing on Cohort Analysis so you don’t let your digital marketing campaigns fall in the cracks, I showed examples of sharing your findings to the rest of your stakeholders for them to understand and take action based on those analytics insights. Indeed, there are multiple ways to visualise your data for the best storytelling to compel business decisions. Here are powerful visualizations that you can do without leaving Adobe Analytics workspace. 1. Time Series Using Line Graph  When is it most suitable: Tracking a campaign daily based on a last touch channel. This is especially important for digital campaigns optimised for website visits (for LinkedIn) or landing page views (for Facebook) to see whether your ads are gaining traction based on the media buying objective. There are other time

Digital Analysts, if there are other members of your team often neglected in the analytics workflow, those are your designers— whether graphic, web, or UI/UX, they are key players and would benefit from your insights and analytics recommendations too. All in a day’s work as a digital analyst involves a bunch of collaboration with your digital marketing, ecommerce, as well as commercial and operations team. But step back and you’ll see that your design department is more than just a creative factory. Here are three ways to engage your designers and how to structure and qualify your data for the right-brained people in your team. 1. Graphic Designers: What makes users click? Your graphic designers make the lasting first impression with your audiences. Banner ads, marketing collaterals, social media, and other creative assets that you invest are fashioned by their creativity. Engaging them takes more than just letting them know that creative A has the best clickthrough rate (CTR), whil

“Why do my landing page views or website clicks on Facebook or other channels don't match with my Adobe Analytics data?” This is one of the most asked questions when it comes to analytics and attribution. And the answer? It NEVER would. Before we dive into that, I want to establish the difference between website entries and visits. Imagine your landing page as a house, the entries are those who entered through the front door; while visits include those who came from the windows, fell from the roof, brought by the wind through the back door, and any other portal. Entries are typically lower than visits. Though the difference is not massive, I recommend entries for campaign-specific insights, and future reference or benchmarking which we will need in discovering these mysteries in digital analytics. Why Use Entries vs Visits? I believe the entry metric is a more objective measurement of a landing page’s performance. It represents how many entered the front door directly from your digit

Wonder how to embed digital analytics in your content marketing strategy? Involve your team's wordsmiths in the analytics workflow! As writers crack their brains to come up with the best copies for your socials, publications for your website, catchy phrases for your EDM—they must have insights on which copies made the audiences click, stick, and pick too!  The same way you need to engage your designers in digital analytics to amp their artistry, here are insights and analytics that you can share with your content makers and why:   1. Social Media Trends Which content clicked? Aside from the graphics, ads have captions and different themes. We are aware of the importance of tailor-fitting copies based on audiences, geography, and campaign phase; as analysts, we see the trends. But were your writers aware which copies they penned for decision influencers worked? Is it the one with humour, the one containing novelty, or the one on thought leadership? Adobe Express identifies t

This blog post was inspired by the following question:   Q: Is it on the product roadmap to update Table Builder to act more like Ad Hoc Analysis?  Where the breakdown items for Days can be expanded to more items?  For example, if I'm running a monthly analysis with daily breakdown, I'd want to see more than the first 5 days of the month.   So, this is a problem that I'm sure many (if not most) of us have faced. Table Builder is good for somewhat small reports, but it is a little limited... For this reason, I tend to take more time building out my reports manually so that I can have a little more control.   So, let's start with report that uses a daily breakdown, and generally these types of reports will set to a default date range, such as last month. Of course, we'll all aware that months range from 28-31 days; but more than that, sometimes your consumers will want to see a longer time frame... so I'm going to show you how to build this out so that i

Attention has limited reserves that won't be deployed in the case of a mundane or insufficiently rewarding task. That’s when Ad Fatigue kicks in or your digital marketing campaigns underperform because the ad serving wasn’t reinforced enough. What Are Three Antidotes for Ad Fatigue? 1.      Ad Format: Variety is Key! At least two creative versions are recommended—ALWAYS. This way, the machine can serve different ads to various audience types which improves the reach overtime. This will also ensure that each audience will see multiple creatives, so if they don’t resonate or click on one, the machine can serve the other. Below is an example ad serving frequency for the span of 15 days of the campaign, and another set in the remaining 15 days. Why is this important? This approach of having variety improves the mileage of your ads, as well as the clickthrough rate. Lastly, multiple creative types will lead to varying volume of website visits. 2. Optimisation Obje

  How can communications and advertising practitioners become better managers of attention in an economy that commodifies it? How can marketers maximise business impact and compel into action the distracted audience, and strategize circularity to nurture customer to become lifelong partners? As an analyst or digital professional, you have a mandate to elevate the standards of communications, data utilisation, and increasing the customer lifetime value for the savvy and increasingly discerning, well-informed consumers. Understanding cohort analysis in three steps will empower your team of digital marketers and other stakeholders to achieve sustainable advertising costs while maximising business impact. 3-Step Cohort Analysis 1.       Select the Right Duration   For example, you want to check your website users return frequency in the last six months. You can choose the date range OR select a Preset date   2.   &n

Hi Everyone, I am interested in talking to people in marketing organizations about the key players in your organization and the way you hand work from one person to another during a campaign. While I am technically the Workfront researcher at Adobe, you do not need to use Workfront to be included. In fact, I really need to find marketers who DO NOT use Workfront but do use other DX products. If you're interested in speaking with me, please sign up using this link: https://calendly.com/wf-product-and-design-research/marketing-work-orchestrationPlease note that we may need to schedule a follow-up session depending on how much we get through in your first sign-up. Additionally, if you know of any other team members within your marketing organization who you think would be great for me to speak with, please let me know and/or feel free to add them to your sign-up! Thanks, Elissa 

I am repeatedly running into the following problem with edit rights on Adobe Analytics projects and segments: For projects there is an advanced sharing feature, that distinguishes between edit, duplicate and view-rights. For segments there is a basic sharing feature only, that is similar to the duplicate mechanism of project-rights-management. This leads to the following reoccurring issue: I share one of my projects with a colleague and grant him edit rights. My colleague needs to be able to edit the project in all its tables, table filters, segments etc. However, the project contains some segments created by myself. As segment based edit rights do not exist, my colleague always has to reach out to me in order to adjust the segments. Or to be more precise, all colleagues will have to reach out to me (system administrator) if they share dashboards with colleagues and run into the same issue. After contacting Adobe Customer Care, they suggested granting system administrator rights to
