Back to ThinkingConcept 12 · The good-looking report

The result was clear. The cause was not.

A campaign showed strong opens and clicks, then weak sales. The report called the offer a failure. But the same result could come from the wrong audience, the wrong product, a broken purchase step or acquisition cost that was simply too high. A result tells you what happened. Context and the customer journey tell you why.

Do not optimise the number. Find the break.

One result, four possible causes, one test at a time
