Funnel Overview

Cost → Clicks
In this first section, we provide the top of the funnel for your Capterra Ads for the given time period. This data is pulled directly from Capterra Ads through our integrations.
Visitors → Contacts → Companies
In the next section, we give an overview of the traffic from Capterra Ads which is based on the Tracking script we have on your websites.
Deals → Value
In the third section, we provide the total number of Attributable Deals and Attributable Value (revenue) that can be assigned to Capterra Ads based on the filters selected.
To calculate these numbers, we first look at the pool of contacts/companies that visited a Capterra Ad based on the dates/filters. Once we have that group, we see what deals were closed after their visit, up to today's date. More importantly, we are only looking at deals where we have a recorded history of sessions; Attributable Deals. This pool of attributable deals will make up the basis for this section. For each of these deals and all their sessions, we will run the Attribution Model you have selected so each session is given a deal and revenue amount.
For both Attributable Deal and Value (revenue), we then provide the sum of these amounts for each session that contains a Capterra Ad, depending on which Attribution Model you have selected.
Note: When using First Touch/Last Touch you will get a round Deal number, as a deal is either First Touch Paid or Not. While with Linear, W-Shaped or U-Shaped you will get a fraction of a deal as most Paid Touchpoints will make up a fraction of the sessions on a deal.
Average Position → Cost per Click → Cost per Acquisition → ROAS
On the fourth row, we provide percentages for some common KPIs, most important Return on Ad Spend.
Graphs and Tables
Category Performance

In this table, we list all the Categories that were running during the time frame specified. We provide all the metrics for each category making it easier for you to compare and find out which performed and which ones did not perform.
Country Performance
This report shows where your campaign click events happen, and which regions bring more value than others.
Note: You can open a larger view by clicking on the performance title in the top left corner
Category Performance over time

We then provide a graph showing the development of your Capterra Ad Categories and their generated deals over the period of time specified in your Filters. Use the Aggregate filter to breakdown the X-Axis as you wish e.g. (day, week, month).
This graph makes it easy to see which Category is performing best, but also it shows how long it generally takes for a campaign to win the deals. To do that, select a specific Category and set the Aggregation filter by days. This will allow you to get detailed analysis on unique campaigns.
Note: Time frame is key so you can give enough time to your campaigns to create value.
