Atlanta, GA -- (SBWire) -- 11/04/2014 --According to a recent analysis from Google Analytics (across all industries in the US), in general, a customer’s online purchase decision has grown to be multi-faceted. The journey a customer has to go through before buying something online is affected by a number of media channels affecting brand identity. This calls for a better understanding of how to enhance online marketing programs. Below are the results of Google Analytics’ report for Q4 2014 with interpretations and recommendations.

The Basics

There are several marketing channels affecting a customer’s online purchase decision. A good online presence is a primer backed up by “assisting channels” and “last interaction channels”. The so-called “assisting channels” help establish awareness, consideration, and intent. The last phase of the “purchase funnel” which is called the “last interaction channels” are the end points of contact before the actual online purchase. Based on the Q4 2014 report from Google Analytics, display clicks (with 3.1 ratio), social media marketing efforts (1.9 ratio), email marketing (1.4 ratio), and paid search (1.0 ratio) are all considered as the assisting channels. While referrals (0.9 ratio), organic search (0.8 ratio), and direct search (0.5 ratio) all act as the last interaction channels. In this respect, identifying the conversion paths and the sequences of interactions are all crucial in identifying how to go about improving the assisting channels so they’ll be able to aid in completing sales. Google Analytics has the feature “Assisted Conversions report” which provide an analytics of the sales and conversions derived from each channel providing a good source of information on the value of each online marketing effort brings towards sales and conversions.

Customer Journey

The duration by which an online purchase is being made differs depending on the type of purchase a customer makes. Shorter lengths of a customer’s journey usually result from a simple buying need. Normally, online purchases which take days, weeks, or months are a result of complex purchases or larger purchase values. Based on Google Analytics’ report, total purchases by days is at 57%. Revenue-wise,47% of the total revenue coming from purchases made in more than one day, while 65% comes from purchases made in more than one step.
