Customer engagement / measurement
Build a measurement plan around decisions, not vanity totals
Useful reporting distinguishes who qualified, what was delivered, how recipients engaged, where support was needed, and whether the intended customer outcome changed.
Create a simple metric hierarchy
Begin with the program objective, then select a limited set of customer and operating measures that explain progress. A long dashboard is not a substitute for a clear decision question.
- Eligible audience
- Decision completion
- Notification delivery
- Recipient access
- Support rate
- Outcome measure
Preserve definitions over time
Document how each measure is calculated, which Shopify events contribute, which program states are excluded, and when data becomes final. Changes should create a new version rather than silently rewriting history.
Use findings to improve the journey
Delivery delay, low access, repeated support questions, and changed-order exceptions point to different improvements. Report enough stage detail to assign action without publishing sensitive controls.
