Results
| Treatment Name | Open Rate | Relative Difference | Confidence | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C: | You should read this with your family | 32.7% | ||
| T1: | You should read this to your kids | 33.2% | 1.5% | 79.3% |
This experiment has a required sample size of 67,791 in order to be valid. Unfortunately, the required sample size was not met and a level of confidence above 95% was not met so the experiment results are not valid.
Key Learnings
We weren't able to validate the results, but we did see a directional lift from the treatment. This tells us that the specificity from the treatment minimally helped increase engagement, but wasn't a significant enough difference to have a greater impact.
