Analytics allows you to view your email performance that is broken out by contact's profile data, giving you the most in-depth view of what impacts your email's success.

Analytics Reports analyze the market segments. They arrange market targets from multiple email results to multiple databases. Reports look at market segments through contact profile and response data to analyze trends. Targeted segments categorize database contacts by such criteria as age, gender, or preferences, and look at associated responses to emails.

Analytics Reports is a powerful tool that requires:

• Segment Groups: are defined segment groups that use multiple databases, to be used in report templates. Segment groups specify the data to include in customized reports. The data is pulled from the database that is selected for a report. However, the group consists of two or more individual segments, you can create one for each of your fields and then display only the field you want in the report. Individual segments specify the data (values) accumulated in database fields. For example, if you have several databases that contain Gender and Product Type fields, you can use segment groups in one report to show product selections for females, and another report to show product selections for males, or both together. Report 1 would show the number of males who purchased each of SUVs, pickups, and sedans and Report 2 would show the number of females who purchased each of SUVs, pickups, and sedans.

  Segment groups are often used to investigate trends, which are not always database-specific, but, which can be recognized across several databases, by using multiple reports.
