Final Marketing Performance Report
The problem with marketing data across Eventbrite
Eventbrite's reports have been focused on Sales & PII (Attendee data) use cases, lacking a unified strategy when it came to marketing reporting. Creators needed to visit 4 different destinations across the product to understand event performance based on traffic channels, as well as manually piece the multiple data points together to draw insights.​

Impact
In March of 2022, we did a soft launch of this report with 350 Super Creators who had previously participated in user research sessions and/or were active monthly-hosting creators.
90% of users targeted viewed the new beta report (within 4 weeks).
​
88% of users in this group navigated to the Marketing product through the available links in this report.
​
46% of users in the group who accessed the report performed some form of paid marketing activity either directly on social media (Facebook ads tool) or through Eventbrite Boost over the next 4 weeks.
6% of the users who viewed the marketing report subscribed to an Eventbrite Boost plan in the next 4 weeks. (12% of users targeted in this launch were already subscribed to Boost.)
​
Note: From the targeted group, 87% of creators had invested in paid marketing in the past, mostly directly on social media (Facebook ads tool) but also through Eventbrite Boost. This indicates that this audience is more experienced and inclined to invest in paid marketing.
If we look at the 88% of users who navigated from the report to Marketing, this is way higher than the 3% conversion rate goal defined early on in the project. Based on this beta launch, the conversion rate is 6% (from viewing the Marketing report to subscribing to Boost).
​
These results indicate that not only the path created by the report to marketing was clear enough, but the report was also compelling in promoting Boost.
