Sample Scenarios

Opt-ins are marketing efforts where a user consents to receive sales and marketing information from marketers, for instance by signing up for a newsletter, checking a checkbox to receive product updates etc.

Opt-in analysis as implemented by SurfStats's products is very flexible in the sense that it allows you to track vitually any type of opt-in campaign you can think of. This is made possible by custom actions. For instance you can track the monthly customer mailblast effectiveness by defining a different action parameter when the email gets sent, opened, forwarded or a target URL gets opened by the recipient.
