ARR Statistics - How to Read it And Understand

Using ARR (Automated Review Request) is crucial if want to get more and more customer reviews, but much more important is to understand which campaign worked better.

ARR statistics - as easy as pie

The image above is a screenshot from a real and running ARR campaign, provided by one of our customers - Barefut. Below we will describe every chart in it.

As you can see, there are some tabs. Every tab shows you the statistics using the same type of charts, but with different data.

  • Total sent - General stats about the current campaign. It includes all the emails that were sent including all reminders.
  • Sent (no reminders) - refers only to the first review request emails.
  • Sent (reminder 1) -  refers only to the first reminder (if it was configured).
  • Sent (reminder 2) - refers only to the second reminder (if it was configured).
  • The charts in the tabs have the same design; the only difference are statistics.

We already mentioned that all the tabs are using the same type of charts. That's why we will explain to you what the charts show using the first tab. It is the main and general report.


 

Choose the period

It is essential to have the possibility to understand how the campaign worked in different periods. Here you can select the period you want. By default, it will show you statistics from all the time, but you can select to see it for "Today", "Yesterday", "Last Week", "Last Month" or select a custom one using the calendar. If you want to get back and see stats for all period press on the "Default" button.

Total Rate Chart

The main chart shows the total rate in a visual way and percents. This way you can get the first impression if the campaign works well or there is something wrong. Here you can see:

  • Open rate - Email open rate is the percentage of the total number of people who opened an email from the current ARR.
  • Clicked rate - is the percentage of people who click on one of the elements from the email like the links "Not displayed correctly", "Too soon", "Unsubscribe" or your logo, product image or stars for the on-landing template. It is also important to understand that this rate is related to the opened emails.
  • Bounced - is the percentage of email addresses in your email list that didn't receive your review request because it was returned by a recipient mail server.
  • Converted - is the percentage of your customers who wrote a review.
  • Unsubscribed - the percentage of people who opt out from the current ARR, these customers won't get any review request emails anymore.

In the center of the main chart, you can see the total number of emails that were sent (it includes reminders and resent emails).

Detailed stats - The devil is in the detail

From the total rate chart, you can find general info in percentage, but it also essential to know the exact number of every of this percent. Below the total rate chart and the calendar you can find detailed statistics about the exact number of email that was opened, bounced, converted, unsubscriber and clicked. Also, we've designed a unique chart for the clicked email rate. You can find the exact number of emails for the links in email -  "Not displayed correctly", "Too soon" or "Unsubscribe".

Important:Due to the fact that all the click stats was merged before 03/01/2019, the stats for Sent reminders 1 and 2 are unavailable for the ARR campaigns created before 03/01/2019. Starting this date all the email clicks will be noted separately and shown in the new statistics design.

How to Setup an Automated Review Request

Nowadays it is very important for online businesses to get, show and share customer reviews. And while it is much easier to show and share the reviews, when it comes to getting reviews it becomes a problem. The biggest challenge is that usually when there are some problems with the product they bought and want to leave a bad review. But what’s with all happy customers? If a client likes something, he will be enjoying it in silence.

Well, how to get reviews after every purchase? The answer is Automated Review Request from Wiremo. Below we will explain how to setup and use it.

 

Setup Wiremo

It’s easy as pie. All you have to do is to start a free trial. You can test all the features for 14 days.

After that find the detailed setup tutorial for your platform on our support page. Setup the plugin or widget and once it is setup properly, you can follow the steps below.

 

Create an email template

Create an email template for ARR

Before starting to ask your customers for reviews you should create and adjust an email template. With Wiremo you can create 2 types of emails: in-email and on-landing. The main difference between them is that in the first type the customers will have to select a rating, write the review and submit it directly in email without leaving it. In the second type, customers click on the rating and then are redirected to the landing page with your logo and Wiremo widget where they can write the review and submit it. The widget will auto-login your customer.

All the main elements of both types of emails can be adjusted as you wish. Here is a detailed tutorial - How to create an email template for Automated Review Request.

Also, there are some very important settings like:

  • On which day after purchase to send emails;
  • How many times to ask a customer for the review;
  • How to ask the customer that bought more than one product at a time;
  • And so on...

Please pay attention to all of them. It is very important not to overdue with the requests, because it could annoy your clients and they will provide you with bad reviews for this, instead of an objective and good review. We recommend to use one reminder.

Now once your template is ready it’s time to start the ARR.

 

Start Automated Review Request

Note:Access to API is available only for our Professional and Premium Plan users.

 

Work with stats

How to setup an Automated Review Request

And the final and also important step is to work with stats. Once started, every ARR campaign will provide you information about how many emails were sent, opened, clicked, converted, bounced and so on.

It is very important to check all this. Sometimes, for different regions and business models, the in-email or on-landing requests works differently. Periodically, you should make some tests campaign with different email templates, different subject and text (the subject in email is very important), to find the best working campaign for you.

All these elements will help you get more and more customer reviews and increase your customer loyalty, improve SEO and finally get more sales and money.
