Contacts
You can filter by specific behaviour or use the search bar to find a particular article. Any of the columns can be sort by just clicking on the headers to make it a bit easier to search for specific behaviour.
Opened - Read Times
Read times help filter out the recipients who just scroll through an email through the preview pane and helps highlight the people who are truly engaged on your note. We estimate that it requires approximately 16 seconds to get anything meaningful from an email, which is our threshold for considering an email "read".
Any contact that has opened an email for 16 seconds or longer displays a Read label in the Opened column. An open less than 16 seconds is marked Preview. It's not possible to track read times with all recipients, so we show those as blue lined-boxes marked Opened.
Additional Opens
If a recipient opens the note more than once, those opens are indicated under the Additional Opens column. This count shows how many times the contact has revisited the email after initially opening it. More detail on how Additional Opens are calculated can be viewed on the Readership Data - Definitions help page.
The Additional Opens count is useful for prioritizing follow-ups. Multiple opens from a single contact are a great indicator of interest in your content. You can also use this data to gauge traction at a particular firm.
Open / Click Trends
These columns indicate how often the contact engages with your content. Our system measure the last 30 articles sent to them, and will assign a category of Rarely (0% - 19% of the time), Sometimes (20% - 74%) or Usually (75% +).
Note that:
- a minimum of 5 articles must be sent to the contact for a trend to be established (otherwise, "No trend yet" will be displayed.
- A trend will only be posted on this page if the contact has opened the email, otherwise "No trend yet" will be posted.
