• It is not about “Likes” “Tweets” “SEO” “Responsive Design” “Follows” etc etc
• It is actually all about SALES
• If you are not 100% focused on SALES as the key measurement – then
you are measuring the wrong thing!
• You need to take a QUANTITATIVE approach to ecommerce this helps to
systemize success in a complex environment!

9. Ecommerce – are your website sales are good or bad… How do you
know? How do you remove all the guesswork?
• The best way is to COMPARE your results with the market results
• The metrics must be measured in identical method so it is like for like
comparison
• IRP Platform does this automatically in the IRP World Cloud -
this is where we aggregate and anonymize statistics for use in
ecommerce
• By COMPARISON against BENCHMARKS you can see how you are
doing OBJECTIVELY
Traffic & Sales strategy using Comparison & Statistics
10. Ecommerce – what is the core data to compare
• TRAFFIC SOURCE eg Google PPC
• WHO IS OPERATING THE TRAFFIC SOURCE eg Digital Agency A
• CURRENT SALES FROM THE TRAFFIC SOURCE eg 100K
• CPA% OF THE TRAFFIC SOURCE eg 5K ad spend / 100k Sales = 5%
What the IRP can find out by comparing your results is
• POSSIBLE SALES FROM THE TRAFFIC SOURCE
• And therefore the LOST SALES FROM THE TRAFFIC SOURCE

13. The Benefits of using a Statistical Comparison Approach
• Take the guesswork out of the traffic channel (e.g Google PPC)
• You can turn you traffic channels into a commodity
• You can find out what sales are missing and act on the data.
• This allows you to assess your current Service Provider (eg PPC Agency,
Social Media Marketer) objectively.
• You can deskill the ecommerce process and assemble the correct team
• You cannot argue with stats..
It is QUANTITIATIVE and removes subjectivity

16. • Once you have a solid statistical and quantitative based ecommerce
strategy in place you need to maximise your sales

while they are on your site…
