Primary Use Case: Testing & Conversion Optimization
Background Overview
Marketing effectiveness requires continuous experimentation and optimization. PowerX CRM combines A/B testing, conversion funnels, heatmaps, and other capabilities with marketing automation to help teams quickly validate hypotheses and promote best practices. This primary use case focuses on "Testing & Conversion Optimization."
Objectives & Value
- Unified Experiment Framework: Manage experiment populations, versions, and goals in CRM.
- Real-time Data: Quickly see conversion, click, and other metric changes.
- Auto-promotion: After experiment ends, automatically recommend and one-click promote best solution.
- Funnel Insights: Visualize conversion funnels and heatmaps to locate problems.
- Knowledge Accumulation: Experiment results consolidated as reusable strategies.
Participating Roles
- Marketing Operations: Initiates tests and monitors results.
- Data Analyst: Evaluates statistical significance and provides suggestions.
- Product/Content Team: Provides different version solutions.
- System Agent: Executes traffic splitting, calculates metrics, and promotes results.
Primary Scenario User Story
As a marketing operations staff, I want to validate marketing strategies through a robust experiment framework, so that I can continuously improve conversion rates.
Sub-scenarios Detailed
Sub-scenario A: A/B Testing Modeling
- Roles & Triggers: Marketing operations creates A/B testing plans defining test population, versions, and target metrics.
- Main Process:
- Select target scenario (email subject, landing page, ad copy).
- Set test population, traffic split ratio, and duration.
- Specify target metrics (open rate, click rate, registration rate, etc.).
- Start test and record data in real-time.
- Success Criteria: Accurate traffic splitting; complete data; no test interference.
- Exception & Risk Control: Sample size insufficient alert; test conflict warning; version approval.
- Indicators: Test coverage, data validity rate, significance achievement.
Sub-scenario B: Real-time Statistics & Significance Calculation
- Roles & Triggers: System auto-splits traffic and calculates core metrics like open rate, click rate, conversion rate in real-time.
- Main Process:
- Data aggregated to test dashboard in real-time.
- System calculates significance and provides confidence intervals.
- Alert on abnormal metrics to pause or adjust.
- Support exporting raw data for further analysis.
- Success Criteria: Accurate statistics; reliable significance judgment; timely anomaly alerts.
- Exception & Risk Control: Data delay prompts; manual review interface; data retention strategy.
- Indicators: Statistics refresh frequency, anomaly alert count, significance pass rate.
Sub-scenario C: Best Solution Auto-promotion
- Roles & Triggers: After experiment ends, system automatically calculates significance and recommends best solution; supports one-click promotion to live campaigns.
- Main Process:
- Test auto-closes after reaching preset sample size.
- System determines best solution and generates promotion suggestion.
- After operations confirmation, one-click apply best version to live journey.
- Save control group for future comparison.
- Success Criteria: Accurate recommendation; uninterrupted promotion; historical versions rollbackable.
- Exception & Risk Control: No significant difference prompts to continue testing; promotion requires approval; record change logs.
- Indicators: Promotion adoption rate, post-promotion conversion improvement, rollback count.
Sub-scenario D: Conversion Funnel & Heatmap Analysis
- Roles & Triggers: Key conversion funnels generate heatmaps to help locate optimization points on forms and landing pages.
- Main Process:
- Select target journey or landing page; generate behavior funnel.
- System draws heatmap showing user停留 and churn locations.
- Provide optimization suggestions (adjust copy, shorten form, add hints).
- Operations record changes and plan next test.
- Success Criteria: Accurate funnel; clear heatmap; actionable suggestions.
- Exception & Risk Control: Data sampling anomaly alerts; privacy data masking; before/after change comparison records.
- Indicators: Funnel conversion rate, heatmap insight adoption rate, optimization iteration cycle.
Scenario-level Test Cases
Test Preparation: Enable A/B testing engine, statistics calculation, auto-promotion, and funnel analysis module. Prepare email subject A/B versions, two landing page sets, statistical significance threshold 95%, and heatmap scripts.
Use Case A-1: A/B Testing Modeling (Positive)
- Preconditions: Target is "registration rate"; planned sample size 10,000.
- Steps:
- Create test with A/B two email subjects, 50% split each.
- Start test and observe traffic splitting.
- Expected Results:
- Balanced split; dashboard shows real-time data; auto-alert if deviation >5%.
- Target metrics update in real-time; no significance calculated before reaching sample size.
Use Case B-1: Significance Calculation & Alert (Positive)
- Preconditions: Test reaches sample size; version B conversion rate significantly higher than version A.
- Steps:
- Refresh test dashboard.
- Check significance conclusion.
- Expected Results:
- System prompts "Version B significantly better than Version A, confidence 97%."
- Provides confidence interval and main contributing factors.
- Allows exporting raw data for deep analysis.
Use Case C-1: One-click Promote Best Solution (Positive)
- Preconditions: Test conclusion clear; approver authorized.
- Steps:
- Click "one-click promote".
- Select promotion to running journey.
- Expected Results:
- Best version replaces live campaign content; update version number.
- Create promotion log recording executor, time, and scope.
- If campaign already sent 50%, system prompts impact scope.
Use Case D-1: Funnel & Heatmap Analysis (Positive)
- Preconditions: Landing page deployed with tracking; heatmap script running normally.
- Steps:
- Open funnel analysis; select "registration process".
- Check heatmap and export suggestions.
- Expected Results:
- Funnel shows step conversion rates; highlights drop-off nodes.
- Heatmap shows user停留 areas; system suggests "shorten form fields".
- Operations record optimization measures and arrange next test round.
Use Case D-2: Insufficient Significance Prompt (Negative)
- Preconditions: Sample size only reached 40% of plan.
- Steps:
- Check test conclusion.
- Expected Results:
- System提示"insufficient data to determine winning version".
- Suggests extending test or expanding audience.
