Question: You’re applying email analytics to your email marketing strategy and have just reviewed your goals and created a hypothesis. What step comes next?
- Test and measure
- Analyze the data
- Collect relevant data
- Segment your audience
Explanation
Email analytics requires relevant performance information before testing or interpretation can produce useful insights. After defining goals and a hypothesis, the next step is to gather the metrics needed to evaluate that hypothesis. In HubSpot, marketing email analytics can include opens, clicks, bounces, unsubscribes, and spam reports. This data provides the evidence needed for later analysis and optimization.
Why the other options are incorrect
Test and measure is incorrect because testing should happen after the needed data has been identified and gathered.
Analyze the data is incorrect because analysis depends on having relevant data available first.
Segment your audience is incorrect because audience grouping is a targeting method, not the next analytics step after creating a hypothesis.
