What is a Goal?

A Goal helps you quantify and set performance targets for your marketing campaigns.

Once you set Goals for your marketing campaigns, the campaign Insights display color-coded icons representing the current performance of the campaigns with respect to the set Goals.

Goals. Green, yellow, light-grey and red trophy icons

  • The green icon represents that the Goal has been achieved within the specified time duration.
  • The yellow icon represents that the Goal has been achieved, albeit after the expiry of the specified time duration.
  • The light-grey icon represents an ongoing Goal that hasn’t yet been achieved yet, i.e., there is still time left before the time duration specified for goal measurement ends.
  • The red icon represents that the Goal has not been achieved within the specified time duration.
 

For example, if you set Goals for an SMS Sending, this is how color-coded icons make performance monitoring easier for you:

Why setting Goals for your campaigns is important

Every marketing campaign is designed and distributed with an end goal in mind, e.g., when you send out welcome discount coupons to your new subscribers, you expect a certain percentage of those customers to redeem the coupon and generate revenue for your business. Similarly, when you run a recruitment campaign, you want to track the number of sign-ups.

With a host of marketing campaigns being sent every day by businesses, it becomes difficult to track and monitor if the campaigns met their target goals. The Goals feature on our platform is designed to make this process easier for you.

All you need to do is set a Goal when you distribute a campaign and monitor the campaign’s performance right from your dashboard, that too, in real-time!
