- Unsubscribe Rate: On an average, how many users are unsubscribing from your campaigns over a period of time, such as per week or month.
- Average Open/Click Rate: If you’re running multiple campaigns, please provide this value for each of the campaigns.
- What made your campaigns successful?
- How do you select the content that goes into your campaigns?
- What are the KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) for your campaigns?
- Please be prepared to send a copy of your current campaign template, in HTM format.
- What is your current ‘From:’ address? For example, ’[email protected]’ or ‘[email protected]’
- ZetaHub sends at ‘Primetime’ by default. Your Solutions Consultant has additional details about what ‘Primetime’ means and why we recommend sending at that time.
- How are you going to measure success on the ZetaHub platform? ZetaHub uses automation (or time saved), the LTV (Life Time Value), and CTOR (Click To Open Rate) to help show your ROI (Return On Investment).
These details will help us to tailor the on-boarding process, and the ZetaHub application, to your requirements.
Resource Details
Whether they are individual articles, images, videos, products, or other items on your site, ZetaHub treats your content as resources. Help us to gauge the amount of resources that we’ll be ingesting from your site allows us to speed up the on-boarding process.
Let us know the following:
- How many resources do you have?
- How many new resources are you generating every day/week?
We also use this information to ensure that there aren’t any duplicate resources on your site, which means that your users get the right content every time you send a campaign.
Behavior Details
ZetaHub helps you deliver personalized content by getting to know your users and their behavior when they visit your site and view your campaigns.
Let us know the following:
- Daily and weekly average site traffic
- A break down of the types of actions that users can take on your site (called activities) on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis
This information helps your Solutions Consultant confirm the information that’s seen during our data validation process.
Business Rules
ZetaHub uses business rules specified by you to segment the content that is sent to your users. With a complete set of business rules, content is delivered according to your requirements.
Let us know the following:
- Do you want to prevent recommendations from being sent based on certain attributes? For example, all resources without a thumbnail can be blacklisted, to ensure only recommendations with images are sent.
- Do you want to prevent recommendations from being sent that have exact matches? For example, blacklist an article that was published with an inappropriate title that was originally published for virality.
- Do you want to prevent recommendations from being sent based on a certain pattern? For example, all titles with ‘From the blog’ will be blacklisted so they aren’t sent.
- Do you want to prevent recommendations from being sent based on tags you use on your site? For example, all Resources tagged with ‘UGC’ will not be sent.
- Do you want to remove recommendations based on a minimum or maximum age? For example, only send recommendations for content created in the last 14 days.
Code Integration
ZetaHub ingests your content, observes your users’ behavior when they visit your site, and delivers personalized content through campaigns and onsite recommendations. In order to do this, your site may require updates in the following areas:

- You can also manually enter users, if you don’t have them in a CSV file.
