Get the most out of your best performing products
Sales Data Integration (also called Top Performers), is a functionality in Feeds that allows you to connect your catalog to your Google Analytics account and categorize all your products by visits, sales and revenue in order to achieve better results in all your catalog ads.
When should I use it?
There are several situations where SDI fits with your strategy:
- You want to offer to potential clients your best performing products.
- You want to improve the Leads campaigns performance: your Top Performers are more likely to grab the user's attention and lead it to a conversion.
- You want to bring back previous customers that know your brand or have bought from you in the past: It is more likely to make a conversion if you show them your Top Performing products.
- You want to create a specific campaigns with an extra budget to push on products with low performance.
How to use it
Once the Google Analytics configuration is properly set up, the following information will appear in all your Data Imports:
*Now you can get more metrics to your catalogs like: Convertion Rate, Cart Abandonment Rate, Add to Cart y Checkout.
Sales Data Integration allows us to create optimizations based on these best-performing products or create specific catalogs that can be later used for specific marketing campaing strategies. For instance, we can segment catalogs including our best-selling or give it a push to low performance products.
- Segmentations: we can create exclusive catalogs including only our top-performing products by filtering based on the performance_data field.
- Optimizations: it is important to note that performance_data is not a standardized field in social platforms, so in order to work with this field we should transform it into an acceptable field like a custom_label. Afterwards on platforms, we can create sets of products based on this label.
