Experiment Summary
Timeframe: 03/23/2021 - 04/06/2021

Results
Treatment Name | Open Rate | Relative Difference | Confidence | |
---|---|---|---|---|
C: | Control | 17.3% | ||
T1: | Treatment #1 | 25.7% | 48.9% | 100.0% |
This experiment has a required sample size of 182 in order to be valid. Since the experiment had a total sample size of 31,123, and the level of confidence is above 95% the experiment results are valid.
Flux Metrics Affected
The Flux Metrics analyze the three primary metrics that affect revenue (traffic, conversion rate, and average gift). This experiment produced the following results:
48.9% increase in traffic
× 0% increase in conversion rate
× 0% increase in average gift
Key Learnings
Treatment #1 increased the open rate, as was hypothesized. Click-through rate was higher in the fully-designed email. We moved forward by testing a combination of a plain-text email with more visuals against the control in the next General newsletter.
