Marketing Campaign Monitoring

Feature

Germain measures marketing campaign performance by monitoring your web application. It provides automated insights related to your marketing campaigns, such as campaign name, traffic sources, returning versus new users, and more. These insights are stored and made available in the Campaign Dimension, allowing you to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns.

By monitoring your web application, Germain captures data related to user interactions and behaviors driven by your marketing campaigns. It helps you understand the impact of different campaigns on user engagement, conversions, and other key performance indicators.

The Campaign Dimension in Germain provides a consolidated view of campaign-related metrics and insights. You can track the performance of specific campaigns, compare different traffic sources, and identify trends or patterns that can guide your marketing strategies.

Some of the key metrics and insights that Germain can provide in the Campaign Dimension include:

Attribution Analysis

Evaluate the contribution of each marketing campaign in generating conversions or other desired outcomes. Germain can help you attribute conversions to specific campaigns or touchpoints along the user journey.

By leveraging the insights provided in the Campaign Dimension, you can make data-driven decisions, optimize your marketing strategies, and maximize the return on your marketing investments.

Campaign Name

Identify and differentiate the performance of individual campaigns based on their names or identifiers.

...
settings.application.campaignExtractor = function() {
    var queryString = window.location.search;
    if (queryString) {
        var values = germainApm.utils.parseQueryStringToMap(queryString); // internal function to convert query string into a map
        if (values['utm_medium'] && values['utm_source']) { // required fields
            return {
                source: values['utm_source'] || null,
                medium: values['utm_medium'] || null,
                content: values['utm_content'] || null,
                name: values['utm_campaign'] || null,
                term: values['utm_term'] || null
            };
        }
    }
    return undefined;
};
...
germainApm.start(settings);
