The status filter allows you to filter out programs that may have ended.

Engagement & Reach Rates Graph

Clicking the dropdown in this section allows you to toggle between the Account Engagement graph and the Engagement and Reach Rate graph, which allows you to see the relationship between passive & active engagement and how your program may be influencing accounts to be more actively engaged over time.

Lead Gen: Here you can find asset by number of accounts by leads and a breakout of delivery by region, company size, industry, and job title.

Display: Here you can find asset by number of accounts by impressions, clicks, and clickthrough rate, and a breakout of delivery by region, company size, and industry.

When in the asset section, clicking on the image will open up a larger image preview with the creative name in the lower left-hand corner (for LinkedIn, the creative ID is there as well). This will work for most assets that aren’t script-based or dynamic creatives.

 

Top Trending Topics & Installed Technologies

These two sections leverage new data in order to give a deeper dive into the research behavior and technologies installed across your target account list. The data provided here allows for robust and up to date insights to influence asset personalization and messaging relevancy when creating new assets during a campaign.

Top Trending Topics:

The bar graph view show the top five topics of the topics you’re tracking for your program over the past 12 weeks. They are ranked by the number of accounts that have been trending on that topic across your target account list.

The list view shows all the topics you’re tracking and the number of accounts in your target account list that are trending.

Top Installed Technologies:

The bar graph shows the top five technologies installed across your target account list.

The list view shows all the technologies across your target account list we have data on and the number of accounts that have that technology installed. To customize the Installed Technologies for your program, work with your onboarding/implementation manager to set your preferences (up to 25).

Account Details

The account details section shows all the accounts you’ve reached and engaged with along with a summary of their engagement with your content. This section is useful for getting a quick rundown of the most engaged accounts and research activities.

The every column here is sortable and you can search the entire account details section by using the search bar in the top right of the card.

Clicking on any of the accounts in the account details table will open up the account view.

Account View

The account view houses all the metrics and engagement details for a specific account. The view reports on the accounts activity as it relates to a single program.

Navigation

Navigating the account view as it relates to the program and program list view is as easy as clicking back through the breadcrumbs found in the upper left hand corner.

Engagement

The engagement section shows a summary of the engagement by the account with your content. Metrics like leads generated, impressions delivered, exposure time, and number of site visits are all available in the summary bar. Two new account level insights are the exposure time per site visit and the trending topics summary.

Exposure Time per Site Visit

This metrics is a way to quickly benchmark the efficiency of media delivery to an account. This number takes the total min/hours of ad exposure and divides it by the number of site visits. This gives a loose correlation to the amount of time an account needs to be exposed to display advertising in order to generate a site visit. To ground this number, the average exposure time per site visit across all the accounts in your target account list is provided to the right of the summary number.

For example, In the image below, this account only needs 10 minutes of ad exposure to generate a site visit. It also indicates that this account is 2.5 times more efficient than the average across your target account list.

 

Trending Topics

Similar to the program view, clicking the allows you to see all the topics that this account has been trending on over the past 12 weeks.

 

Below the summary bar you’ll find four reports that show account specific research behavior and display metrics over time.

 

  1. Top Trending Topics

    1. This chart shows the top three topics ranked by average trend score over the past 12 weeks. This chart can be used to see the best time to deliver topic specific messaging to an account and to get insight on their recent research behavior.

  2. All Topics

  3. Impressions

    1. This chart shows a cumulative view of the impressions delivered over time.

  4. Exposure Time & Site Visits

    1. This chart shows the hours of exposure over time and how it has effected the overall site visits. This chart can be used to show the relationship between these two metrics and could indicate good opportunities to increase allocations to improve engagement from a specific account.

Assets

This table shows the assets for both lead gen and display and how the account has interacted with your content.

Installed Technologies

This section shows all the technologies installed at this account, the last day we verified that the technology was installed, and the number of accounts across your target account list that also have that technology installed. This could be used for competitive intel, changing messaging when running contesting campaigns, or personalizing messaging to highlight the benefits of using your product along side a technology they already use. This is also helpful info when your sales team is reaching out to contacts at this account as they’ll have additional insights on what they may already have running.

To customize which installed technologies you would like to track during any given program, work with your onboarding/implementation manager to set your Installed Technologies preferences (up to 25).

Leads

The leads table contains all the contacts from this account that have downloaded your content. Information like download date, name, email, job title, country, and the asset they downloaded are all available here and the table is sortable by any column.
