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:
0% increase in traffic
× 67.4% increase in conversion rate
× 0% increase in average gift
Key Learnings
We found out that adding a book to the photo increased donations. Because of the increase in donations we also saw the revenue go up. The generic image had $710 and the book image had $1384 in revenue. It also had a higher click rate on Facebook. Adding the book seems to have caught peoples attention and showed them what they will be receiving by clicking through the ad and signing up.
