The Social tab reveals who liked your campaign on Facebook, a list of the top influencers and referrers for the campaign, and a map of clicks from across the globe.

The E-commerce tab provides a breakdown of each recipient’s purchases, so you can quickly identify who bought what after opening your campaign. If your campaign includes products from multiple connected stores, you can filter the purchase data by each store.

Troubleshooting reports

If your campaign results seem incorrect, here are some things to keep in mind.

• Emails can sometimes take a while to send and be received by all the ISPs and incoming servers.
• Open and click tracking must be turned on for those stats to populate.
• For an open to be tracked, the recipient needs to enable image viewing in their own email account or click a tracked link in the campaign.
• If the majority of your recipients are at the same domain, it's possible the domain admin may be quarantining the message in their incoming spam filter.
• Do you have any abuse complaints? When someone reports your email as spam, they are automatically unsubscribed.
• The unsubscribe confirmation email includes a link to sign back up. When someone uses this link to re-subscribe, we don’t count the unsubscribe in your campaign report.
• Some email programs may cause the unsubscribe link to send recipients to the unsubscribe form, instead of unsubscribing them automatically. These unsubscribes are not counted in your campaign report.
