Conversion rate, click-through-rate, open rate… lions and tigers and bears, oh my! What’s the deal with all these digital marketing stats? What’s considered good or bad, and what’s the right benchmark for you and your business? In this episode, we’re talking about the metrics you need to know and how to analyze the data so that you can optimize your digital sales funnel for the best possible results. In plain English, that means know what’s working and what’s not, so you can sell more products and change more lives with your content.
Highlights:

- Email open rates: 30% is average; aim for 50%
