  • Marketing Cohort Analysis : How To Do It (With Examples)

    12 janvier 2024, par Erin

    The better you understand your customers, the more effective your marketing will become. 

    The good news is you don’t need to run expensive focus groups to learn much about how your customers behave. Instead, you can run a marketing cohort analysis using data from your website analytics.

    A marketing cohort groups your users by certain traits and allows you to drill down to discover why they take the actions on your website they do. 

    In this article, we’ll explain what a marketing cohort analysis is, show you what you can achieve with this analytical technique and provide a step-by-step guide to pulling it off. 

    What is cohort analysis in marketing ?

    A marketing cohort analysis is a form of behavioural analytics where you analyse the behavioural patterns of users who share a similar trait to better understand their actions. 

    These shared traits could be anything like the date they signed up for your product, users who bought your service through a paid ad or email subscribers from the United Kingdom.

    It’s a fantastic way to improve your marketing efforts, allowing you to better understand complex user behaviours, personalise campaigns accordingly and improve your ROI. 

    You can run marketing analysis using an analytics platform like Google Analytics or Matomo. With these platforms, you can measure how cohorts perform using traffic, engagement and conversion metrics.

    An example of marketing cohort chart

    There are two types of cohort analysis : acquisition-based cohort analysis and behavioural-based cohort analysis.

    Acquisition-based cohort analysis

    An acquisition-based cohort divides users by the date they purchased your product or service and tracks their behaviour afterward. 

    For example, one cohort could be all the users who signed up for your product in November. Another could be the users who signed up for your product in October. 

    You could then run a cohort analysis to see how the behaviour of the two cohorts differed. 

    Did the November cohort show higher engagement rates, increased frequency of visits post-acquisition or quicker conversions compared to the October cohort ? Analysing these cohorts can help with refining marketing strategies, optimising user experiences and improving retention and conversion rates.

    As you can see from the example, acquisition-based cohorts are a great way to track the initial acquisition and how user behaviour evolves post-acquisition.

    Behavioural-based cohort analysis

    A behavioural-based cohort divides users by their actions on your site. That could be their bounce rate, the number of actions they took on your site, their average time on site and more.

    Behavioural cohort analysis gives you a much deeper understanding of user behaviour and how they interact with your website.

    What can you achieve with a marketing cohort analysis ?

    A marketing cohort analysis is a valuable tool that can help marketers and product teams achieve the following goals :

    Understand which customers churn and why

    Acquisition and behavioural cohort analyses help marketing teams understand when and why customers leave. This is one of the most common goals of a marketing cohort analysis. 

    Learn which customers are most valuable

    Want to find out which channels create the most valuable customers or what actions customers take that increase their loyalty ? You can use a cohort analysis to do just that. 

    For example, you may find out you retain users who signed up via direct traffic better than those that signed up from an ad campaign. 

    Discover how to improve your product

    You can even use cohort analysis to identify opportunities to improve your website and track the impact of your changes. For example, you could see how visitor behaviour changes after a website refresh or whether visitors who take a certain action make more purchases. 

    Find out how to improve your marketing campaign

    A marketing cohort analysis makes it easy to find out which campaigns generate the best and most profitable customers. For example, you can run a cohort analysis to determine which channel (PPC ads, organic search, social media, etc.) generates customers with the lowest churn rate. 

    If a certain ad campaign generates the low-churn customers, you can allocate a budget accordingly. Alternatively, if customers from another ad campaign churn quickly, you can look into why that may be the case and optimise your campaigns to improve them. 

    Measure the impact of changes

    You can use a behavioural cohort analysis to understand what impact changes to your website or product have on active users. 

    If you introduced a pricing page to your website, for instance, you could analyse the behaviour of visitors who interacted with that page compared to those who didn’t, using behavioural cohort analysis to gauge the impact of these website changes on engagemen or conversions.

    The problem with cohort analysis in Google Analytics

    Google Analytics is often the first platform marketers turn to when they want to run a cohort analysis. While it’s a free solution, it’s not the most accurate or easy to use and users often encounter various issues

    For starters, Google Analytics can’t process user visitor data if they reject cookies. This can lead to an inaccurate view of traffic and compromise the reliability of your insights.

    In addition, GA is also known for sampling data, meaning it provides a subset rather than the complete dataset. Without the complete view of your website’s performance, you might make the wrong decisions, leading to less effective campaigns, missed opportunities and difficulties in reaching marketing goals.

    How to analyse cohorts with Matomo

    Luckily, there is an alternative to Google Analytics. 

    As the leading open-source web analytics solution, Matomo offers a robust option for cohort analysis. With its 100% accurate data, thanks to the absence of sampling, and its privacy-friendly tracking, users can rely on the data without resorting to guesswork. It is a premium feature included with our Matomo Cloud or available to purchase on the Matomo Marketplace for Matomo On-Premise users.

    Below, we’ll show how you can run a marketing cohort analysis using Matomo.

    Set a goal

    Setting a goal is the first step in running a cohort analysis with any platform. Define what you want to achieve from your analysis and choose the metrics you want to measure. 

    For example, you may want to improve your customer retention rate over the first 90 days. 

    Define cohorts

    Next, create cohorts by defining segmentation criteria. As we’ve discussed above, this could be acquisition-based or behavioural. 

    Matomo makes it easy to define cohorts and create charts. 

    In the sidebar menu, click Visitors > Cohorts. You’ll immediately see Matomo’s standard cohort report (something like the one below).

    Marketing cohort by bounce rate of visitors in Matomo dashboard

    In the example above, we’ve created cohorts by bounce rate. 

    You can view cohorts by weekly, monthly or yearly periods using the date selector and change the metric using the dropdown. Other metrics you can analyse cohorts by include :

    • Unique visitors
    • Return visitors
    • Conversion rates
    • Revenue
    • Actions per visit

    Change the data selection to create your desired cohort, and Matomo will automatically generate the report.

    Analyse your cohort chart

    Cohort charts can be intimidating initially, but they are pretty easy to understand and packed with insights. 

    Here’s an example of an acquisition-based cohort chart from Matomo looking at the percentage of returning visitors :

    An Image of a marketing cohort chart in Matomo Analytics

    Cohorts run vertically. The oldest cohort (visitors between February 13 – 19) is at the top of the chart, with the newest cohort (April 17 – 23) at the bottom. 

    The period of time runs horizontally — daily in this case. The cells show the corresponding value for the metric we’re plotting (the percentage of returning visitors). 

    For example, 98.69% of visitors who landed on your site between February 13 – 19, returned two weeks later. 

    Usually, running one cohort analysis isn’t enough to identify a problem or find a solution. That’s why comparing several cohort analyses or digging deeper using segmentation is important.

    Segment your cohort chart

    Matomo lets you dig deeper by segmenting each cohort to examine their behaviour’s specifics. You can do this from the cohort report by clicking the segmented visitor log icon in the relevant row.

    Segmented visit log in Matomo cohort report
    Segmented cohort visitor log in Matomo

    Segmenting cohorts lets you understand why users behave the way they do. For example, suppose you find that users you purchased on Black Friday don’t return to your site often. In that case, you may want to rethink your offers for next year to target an audience with potentially better customer lifetime value. 

    Start using Matomo for marketing cohort analysis

    A marketing cohort analysis can teach you a lot about your customers and the health of your business. But you need the right tools to succeed. 

    Matomo provides an effective and privacy-first way to run your analysis. You can create custom customer segments based on almost anything, from demographics and geography to referral sources and user behaviour. 

    Our custom cohort analysis reports and colour-coded visualisations make it easy to analyse cohorts and spot patterns. Best of all, the data is 100% accurate. Unlike other web analytics solution or cohort analysis tools, we don’t sample data.

  • Linear Attribution Model : What Is It and How Does It Work ?

    16 février 2024, par Erin

    Want a more in-depth way to understand the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns ? Then, the linear attribution model could be the answer.

    Although you can choose from several different attribution models, a linear model is ideal for giving value to every touchpoint along the customer journey. It can help you identify your most effective marketing channels and optimise your campaigns. 

    So, without further ado, let’s explore what a linear attribution model is, when you should use it and how you can get started. 

    What is a linear attribution model ?

    A linear attribution model is a multi-touch method of marketing attribution where equal credit is given to each touchpoint. Every marketing channel used across the entire customer journey gets credit, and each is considered equally important. 

    So, if a potential customer has four interactions before converting, each channel gets 25% of the credit.

    The linear attribution model shares credit equally between each touchpoint

    Let’s look at how linear attribution works in practice using a hypothetical example of a marketing manager, Sally, who is looking for an alternative to Google Analytics. 

    Sally starts her conversion path by reading a Matomo article comparing Matomo to Google Analytics she finds when searching on Google. A few days later she signs up for a webinar she saw on Matomo’s LinkedIn page. Two weeks later, Sally gets a sign-off from her boss and decides to go ahead with Matomo. She visits the website and starts a free trial by clicking on one of the paid Google Ads. 

    Using a linear attribution model, we credit each of the channels Sally uses (organic traffic, organic social, and paid ads), ensuring no channel is overlooked in our marketing analysis. 

    Are there other types of attribution models ?

    Absolutely. There are several common types of attribution models marketing managers can use to measure the impact of channels in different ways. 

    Pros & Cons of Different Marketing Attribution Models
    • First interaction : Also called a first-touch attribution model, this method gives all the credit to the first channel in the customer journey. This model is great for optimising the top of your sales funnel.
    • Last interaction : Also called a last-touch attribution model, this approach gives all the credit to the last channel the customer interacts with. It’s a great model for optimising the bottom of your marketing funnel. 
    • Last non-direct interaction : This attribution model excludes direct traffic and credits the previous touchpoint. This is a fantastic alternative to a last-touch attribution model, especially if most customers visit your website before converting. 
    • Time decay attribution model : This model adjusts credit according to the order of the touchpoints. Those nearest the conversion get weighted the highest. 
    • Position-based attribution model : This model allocates 40% of the credit to the first and last touchpoints and splits the remaining 20% evenly between every other interaction.

    Why use a linear attribution model ?

    Marketing attribution is vital if you want to understand which parts of your marketing strategy are working. All of the attribution models described above can help you achieve this to some degree, but there are several reasons to choose a linear attribution model in particular. 

    It uses multi-touch attribution

    Unlike single-touch attribution models like first and last interaction, linear attribution is a multi-touch attribution model that considers every touchpoint. This is vital to get a complete picture of the modern customer journey, where customers interact with companies between 20 and 500 times

    Single-touch attribution models can be misleading by giving conversion credit to a single channel, especially if it was the customer’s last use. In our example above, Sally’s last interaction with our brand was through a paid ad, but it was hardly the most important. 

    It’s easy to understand

    Attribution models can be complicated, but linear attribution is easy to understand. Every touchpoint gets the same credit, allowing you to see how your entire marketing function works. This simplicity also makes it easy for marketers to take action. 

    It’s great for identifying effective marketing channels

    Because linear attribution is one of the few models that provides a complete view of the customer journey, it’s easy to identify your most common and influential touchpoints. 

    It accounts for the top and bottom of your funnel, so you can also categorise your marketing channels more effectively and make more informed decisions. For example, PPC ads may be a more common bottom-of-the-full touchpoint and should, therefore, not be used to target broad, top-of-funnel search terms.

    Are there any reasons not to use linear attribution ?

    Linear attribution isn’t perfect. Like all attribution models, it has its weaknesses. Specifically, linear attribution can be too simple, dilute conversion credit and unsuitable for long sales cycles.

    What are the reasons not to use linear attribution

    It can be too simple

    Linear attribution lacks nuance. It only considers touchpoints while ignoring other factors like brand image and your competitors. This is true for most attribution models, but it’s still important to point it out. 

    It can dilute conversion credit

    In reality, not every touchpoint impacts conversions to the same extent. In the example above, the social media post promoting the webinar may have been the most effective touchpoint, but we have no way of measuring this. 

    The risk with using a linear model is that credit can be underestimated and overestimated — especially if you have a long sales cycle. 

    It’s unsuitable for very long sales cycles

    Speaking of long sales cycles, linear attribution models won’t add much value if your customer journey contains dozens of different touchpoints. Credit will get diluted to the point where analysis becomes impossible, and the model will also struggle to measure the precise ways certain touchpoints impact conversions. 

    Should you use a linear attribution model ?

    A linear attribution model is a great choice for any company with shorter sales cycles or a reasonably straightforward customer journey that uses multiple marketing channels. In these cases, it helps you understand the contribution of each touchpoint and find your best channels. 

    It’s also a practical choice for small businesses and startups that don’t have a team of data scientists on staff or the budget to hire outside help. Because it’s so easy to set up and understand, anyone can start generating insights using this model. 

    How to set up a linear attribution model

    Are you sold on the idea of using a linear attribution model ? Then follow the steps below to get started :

    Set up marketing attribution in four steps

    Choose a marketing attribution tool

    Given the market is worth $3.1 billion, you won’t be surprised to learn there are plenty of tools to choose from. But choose carefully. The tool you pick can significantly impact your success with attribution modelling. 

    Take Google Analytics, for instance. While GA4 offers several marketing attribution models for free, including linear attribution, it lacks accuracy due to cookie consent rejection and data sampling. 

    Accurate marketing attribution is included as a feature in Matomo Cloud and is available as a plugin for Matomo On-Premise users. We support a full range of attribution models that use 100% accurate data because we don’t use data sampling, and cookie consent isn’t an issue (with the exception of Germany and the UK). That means you can trust our insights.

    Matomo’s marketing attribution is available out of the box, and we also provide access to raw data, allowing you to develop your custom attribution model. 

    Collect data

    The quality of your marketing attribution also depends on the quality and quantity of your data. It’s why you need to avoid a platform that uses data sampling. 

    This should include :

    • General data from your analytics platform, like pages visited and forms filled
    • Goals and conversions, which we’ll discuss in more detail in the next step
    • Campaign tracking data so you can monitor the behaviour of traffic from different referral channels
    • Behavioural data from features like Heatmaps or Session Recordings

    Set up goals and conversions

    You can’t assign conversion values to customer journey touchpoints if you don’t have conversion goals in place. That’s why the next step of the process is to set up conversion tracking in your web analytics platform. 

    Depending on your type of business and the product you sell, conversions could take one of the following forms :

    • A product purchase
    • Signing up for a webinar
    • Downloading an ebook
    • Filling in a form
    • Starting a free trial

    Setting up these kinds of goals is easy if you use Matomo. 

    Just head to the Goals section of the dashboard, click Manage Goals and then click the green Add A New Goal button. 

    Fill in the screen below, and add a Goal Revenue at the bottom of the page. Doing so will mean Matomo can automatically calculate the value of each touchpoint when using your attribution model. 

    A screenshot of Matomo's conversion dashboard

    If your analytics platform allows it, make sure you also set up Event Tracking, which will allow you to analyse how many users start to take a desired action (like filling in a form) but never complete the task. 

    Try Matomo for Free

    Get the web insights you need, without compromising data accuracy.

    No credit card required

    Test and validate

    As we’ve explained, linear attribution is a great model in some scenarios, but it can fall short if you have a long or complex sales funnel. Even if you’re sure it’s the right model for your company, testing and validating is important. 

    Ideally, your chosen attribution tool should make this process pretty straightforward. For example, Matomo’s Marketing Attribution feature makes comparing and contrasting three different attribution models easy. 

    Here we compare the performance of three attribution models—linear, first-touch, and last-non-direct—in Matomo’s Marketing Attribution dashboard, providing straightforward analysis.

    If you think linear attribution accurately reflects the value of your channels, you can start to analyse the insights it generates. If not, then consider using another attribution model.

    Don’t forget to take action from your marketing efforts, either. Linear attribution helps you spot the channels that contribute most to conversions, so allocate more resources to those channels and see if you can improve your conversion rate or boost your ROI. 

    Make the most of marketing attribution with Matomo

    A linear attribution model lets you measure every touchpoint in your customer journey. It’s an easy attribution model to start with and lets you identify and optimise your most effective marketing channels. 

    However, accurate data is essential if you want to benefit the most from marketing attribution data. If your web analytics solution doesn’t play nicely with cookies or uses sampled data, then your linear model isn’t going to tell you the whole story. 

    That’s why over 1 million sites trust Matomo’s privacy-focused web analytics, ensuring accurate data for a comprehensive understanding of customer journeys.

    Now you know what linear attribution modelling is, start employing the model today by signing up for a free 21-day trial, no credit card required. 

  • How to Conduct a Customer Journey Analysis (Step-by-Step)

    9 mai 2024, par Erin

    Your customers are everything.

    Treat them right, and you can generate recurring revenue for years. Treat them wrong ; you’ll be spinning your wheels and dealing with churn.

    How do you give your customers the best experience possible so they want to stick around ?

    Improve their customer experience.

    How ?

    By conducting a customer journey analysis.

    When you know how your customers experience your business, you can improve it to meet and exceed customer expectations.

    In this guide, we’ll break down how the customer journey works and give you a step-by-step guide to conduct a thorough customer journey analysis so you can grow your brand.

    What is a customer journey analysis ?

    Every customer you’ve ever served went on a journey to find you.

    From the moment they first heard of you, to the point that they became a customer. 

    Everything in between is the customer journey.

    A customer journey analysis is how you track and analyse how your customers use different channels to interact with your brand.

    What is a customer journey analysis?

    Analysing your customer journey involves identifying the customer’s different touchpoints with your business so you can understand how it impacts their experience. 

    This means looking at every moment they interacted with your brand before, during and after a sale to help you gain actionable insights into their experience and improve it to reach your business objectives.

    Your customers go through specific customer touchpoints you can track. By analysing this customer journey from a bird’s eye view, you can get a clear picture of the entire customer experience.

    4 benefits of customer journey analysis

    Before we dive into the different steps involved in a customer journey analysis, let’s talk about why it’s vital to analyse the customer journey.

    By regularly analysing your customer journey, you’ll be able to improve the entire customer experience with practical insights, allowing you to :

    Understand your customers better

    What’s one key trait all successful businesses have ?

    They understand their customers.

    By analysing your customer journey regularly, you’ll gain new insights into their wants, needs, desires and behaviours, allowing you to serve them better. These insights will show you what led them to buy a product (or not).

    For example, through conducting a customer journey analysis, a company might find out that customers who come from LinkedIn are more likely to buy than those coming from Facebook.

    Find flaws in your customer journey

    Nobody wants to hear they have flaws. But the reality is your customer journey likely has a few flaws you could improve.

    By conducting customer journey analysis consistently, you’ll be able to pinpoint precisely where you’re losing prospects along the way. 

    For example, you may discover you’re losing customers through Facebook Ads. Or you may find your email strategy isn’t as good as it used to be.

    But it’s not just about the channel. It could be a transition between two channels. For example, you may have great engagement on Instagram but are not converting them into email subscribers. The issue may be that your transition between the two channels has a leak.

    Or you may find that prospects using certain devices (i.e., mobile, tablet, desktop) have lower conversions. This might be due to design and formatting issues across different devices.

    By looking closely at your customer journey and the different customer touchpoints, you’ll see issues preventing prospects from turning into leads or customers from returning to buy again as loyal customers.

    Gain insights into how you can improve your brand

    Your customer journey analysis won’t leave you with a list of problems. Instead, you’ll have a list of opportunities.

    Since you’ll be able to better understand your customers and where they’re falling off the sales funnel, you’ll have new insights into how you can improve the experience and grow your brand.

    For example, maybe you notice that your visitors are getting stuck at one stage of the customer journey and you’re trying to find out why.

    So, you leverage Matomo’s heatmaps, sessions recordings and scroll depth to find out more.

    In the case below, we can see that Matomo’s scroll map is showing that only 65% of the visitors are reaching the main call to action (to write a review). 

    Scroll depth screenshot in Matomo displaying lack of clicks to CTA button

    To try to push for higher conversions and get more reviews, we could consider moving that button higher up on the page, ideally above the fold.

    Rather than guessing what’s preventing conversions, you can use user behaviour analytics to “step in our user’s shoes” so you can optimise faster and with confidence.

    Grow your revenue

    By taking charge of your customer journey, you can implement different strategies that will help you increase your reach, gain more prospects, convert more prospects into customers and turn regulars into loyal customers.

    Using customer journey analysis will help you optimise those different touchpoints to maximise the ROI of your channels and get the most out of each marketing activity you implement.

    7 steps to conduct a customer journey analysis

    Now that you know the importance of conducting a customer journey analysis regularly, let’s dive into how to implement an analysis.

    Here are the seven steps you can take to analyse the customer journey to improve your customer experience :

    7 steps to conduct a customer journey analysis.

    1. Map out your customer journey

    Your first step to conducting an effective customer journey analysis is to map your entire customer journey.

    Customer journey mapping means looking at several factors :

    • Buying process
    • Customer actions
    • Buying emotions
    • Buying pain points
    • Solutions

    Once you have an overview of your customer journey maps, you’ll gain insights into your customers, their interests and how they interact with your brand. 

    After this, it’s time to dive into the touchpoints.

    2. Identify all the customer touchpoints 

    To improve your customer journey, you need to know every touchpoint a customer can (and does) make with your brand.

    This means taking note of every single channel and medium they use to communicate with your brand :

    • Website
    • Social media
    • Search engines (SEO)
    • Email marketing
    • Paid advertising
    • And more

    Essentially, anywhere you communicate and interact with your customers is fair game to analyse.

    If you want to analyse your entire sales funnel, you can try Matomo, a privacy-friendly web analytics tool. 

    You should make sure to split up your touchpoints into different customer journey stages :

    • Awareness
    • Consideration
    • Conversion
    • Advocacy

    Then, it’s time to move on to how customers interact on these channels.

    Try Matomo for Free

    Get the web insights you need, without compromising data accuracy.

    No credit card required

    3. Measure how customers interact on each channel

    To understand the customer journey, you can’t just know where your customers interact with you. You end up learning how they’re interacting.

    This is only possible by measuring customer interactions.

    How ?

    By using a web analytics tool like Matomo.

    With Matomo, you can track every customer action on your website.

    This means anytime they :

    • Visit your website
    • View a web page
    • Click a link
    • Fill out a form
    • Purchase a product
    • View different media
    • And more

    You should analyse your engagement on your website, apps and other channels, like email and social media.

    4. Implement marketing attribution

    Now that you know where your customers are and how they interact, it’s time to analyse the effectiveness of each channel based on your conversion rates.

    Implementing marketing attribution (or multi-touch attribution) is a great way to do this.

    Attribution is how you determine which channels led to a conversion.

    While single-touch attribution models credit one channel for a conversion, marketing attribution gives credit to a few channels.

    For example, let’s say Bob is looking for a new bank. He sees an Instagram post and finds himself on HSBC’s website. After looking at a few web pages, he attends a webinar hosted by HSBC on financial planning and investment strategies. One week later, he gets an email from HSBC following up on the webinar. Then, he decides to sign up for HSBC’s online banking.

    Single touch attribution would attribute 100% of the conversion to email, which doesn’t show the whole picture. Marketing attribution would credit all channels : social media, website content, webinars and email.

    Matomo offers multiple attribution models. These models leverage different weighting factors, like time decay or linear, so that you can allocate credit to each touchpoint based on its impact.

    Matomo’s multi-touch attribution reports give you in-depth insights into how revenue is distributed across different channels. These detailed reports help you analyse each channel’s contribution to revenue generation so you can optimise the customer journey and improve business outcomes.

    5. Use a funnels report to find where visitors are leaving

    Once you set up your marketing attribution, it’s time to analyse where visitors are falling off.

    You can leverage Matomo funnels to find out the conversion rate at each step of the journey on your website. Funnel reports can help you see exactly where visitors are falling through the cracks so you can increase conversions.

    6. Analyse why visitors aren’t converting

    Once you can see where visitors are leaving, you can start to understand why.

    For example, let’s say you analyse your funnels report in Matomo and see your landing page is experiencing the highest level of drop-offs.

    Screenshot of Forms Overview report in Matomo's Form Analytics feature

    You can also use form analytics to find out why users aren’t converting on your landing pages – a crucial part of the customer journey.

    7. A/B test to improve the customer journey

    The final step to improve your customer journey is to conduct A/B tests. These are tests where you test one version of a landing page to see which one converts better, drives more traffic, or generates more revenue.

    For example, you could create two versions of a header on your website and drive 50% of your traffic to each version. Then, once you’ve got your winner, you can keep that as your new landing page.
