Measuring the success of your SMS campaign is crucial to understanding its impact and making improvements. Here are five key metrics to track:
1. Delivery Rate
Ensure your messages are reaching recipients. A high delivery rate indicates that your messages are successfully delivered. Low rates could signal issues with your contact list or service provider.
2. Open Rate
Track how many recipients open your messages. While SMS open rates are typically high, monitoring this metric helps gauge initial engagement and the effectiveness of your message preview.
3. Click-Through Rate (CTR)
Measure the percentage of recipients who click on links in your messages. This indicates how compelling your call-to-action is and how interested your audience is in your offer.
4. Conversion Rate
Determine how many recipients take the desired action. This could be making a purchase, signing up for a newsletter, or any other goal. The conversion rate directly reflects the campaign’s effectiveness in achieving your objectives.
5. Opt-Out Rate
Monitor the rate at which recipients unsubscribe from your messages. A high opt-out rate could indicate that your messages are too frequent, irrelevant, or not providing enough value. Use this feedback to adjust your strategy.
