SMS statistics

Follow

Every SMS message sent from Engage will generate statistics on unsubscribe activity, delivery, soft and hard bounces.

Engage provides aggregated statistics for recipients and delivered text messages. The data is presented in the list view of sent SMS messages as soon as recipients starts to receive the message.

Delivered statistics

The Delivered panel allows you to act on contacts that have received, or on contacts that have produced a hard or soft bounce on the SMS message as soon as the individual statistics are calculated and visible in the Delivered overview. If you wish to know more about hard and soft bounces, click here.

Status "unknown" indicates that Engage has yet to receive a response or that the message from the responding mobile phone operator could not be interpreted.

How to directly send e-mails to contacts that generated soft bounces on sms:

1. Click the Action button below Soft bounces and choose Send email.
   
   
2. Create an email to send to the selected contacts.

Effect statistics

This panel displays the effect of the SMS message. These numbers are only available if transactional data is imported to and stored in Engage. All available time-spans are calculated from the moment the message was sent (i.e., 1 day is equal to 24 hours after message was sent).

• Made a purchase
  Contacts that have made at least one purchase since the message was sent.
• Conversion rate
  Percentage of total number of recipients that have made a purchase.
• Purchases per converted customer
  Number of purchases each customer made who purchased since the message was sent.
• Average receipt
  The average sum a customer bought for since the message was sent.
• Total sales
  The total sum you have sold for since the message was sent, in your currency.
