Reporting View
You will be presented with reports of all emails sent from all users from the date you opened your account with PoliteMail. You can see how many messages were sent and a list of all senders and recipients. Scrolling down, you should see your overall email reach, readership and engagement.
Email reach measures the percent of your audience that have received and opened your message, and paid a minimum threshold of attention, meaning they didn't immediately delete or skip. The primary factors which impact reach are list accuracy, measurement accuracy, from address, subject line, inbox timing, and preview content. You can also see open rate, ignore rate, audience attention rate, and open attention rate.
Email readership measures how much time recipients spend viewing your message, categorized into groups by minimum thresholds. The primary factors which impact readership are relevant subject lines and preview content, layout and design formatting, writing and images, message length and delivery timing.
Engagement measures interaction with your email, combining the percent of the content read together with click activity, if links are included in the message. Factors which impact engagement include reading ease, authenticity, content relevancy and interest, presentation and message length, and call to action and link text effectiveness.
Within each of these reports, you will see comparison to your company average. You can also compare to your industry benchmark.
