Filtering

The Currency, Division, User Group, and Date range filters influence all sections of the dashboard.

If your organization uses multiple currencies, you can choose which currency to view the report in (USD or EUR). As the exchange rate for currency conversion, we use a six-month rolling average ending at the last date of the previous month.

By default, the selected options will be USD, all the Divisions you have access to, all applicable user groups, and a 90-day range.
You can:

• Edit your selection to see the specific data. Select the currency in which you would like to view the revenue. Choose to view data for any or all of the Divisions you have access to. Choose the user groups you wish to filter for. Lastly, select the timeframe, choosing from 7, 14, 30, 90, 180, and 360-day periods.
• Hover over the filter and click on the three dot menu to reset the data to default or refresh the available options.

 

Trends

The first box shows the total revenue for your selection. The arrow indicates whether the revenue is trending up or down compared to the previous timeframe. Below, you’ll see the difference in revenue between the current and past timeframes.

The second box indicates the total number of deals closed for your selection. The arrow indicates if the number is trending up or down compared to the previous timeframe, and below you’ll see the difference between the current and past timeframe.

The third box displays the total number of marketing assets that influenced closing deals for your selection. The arrow indicates if the number is trending up or down compared to the previous timeframe, and below you’ll see the difference between the current and past timeframe. Assets influencing deals are marketing assets shared and viewed by a prospect before an opportunity is closed and for a closed and won opportunity within the selected timeframe. Content shared via email, link, or Shared Space must be logged to an opportunity with our CRM integration to be counted.

In the example below, for the last 90 days:

• The total revenue reached 5,315,000, reflecting an increase of 543,000 more than the previous 90 days
• There were 32 deals closed, which is 5 less than the previous period
• There were 123 assets linked to deals, which is 21 less than the previous period

 

What content type drives the most revenue?

This graph displays the revenue per content type for your selection. In the example below, you can see that documents drove 5,302,000 of revenue, while videos drove 2,803,000 of revenue, and pages drove 2,771,000 of revenue.

On the right of the graph, you can see two sections presenting the top 5 most influencing assets and rising assets for the timeframe selected:

• Most influencing assets are the ones that had the highest revenue contribution
• Rising assets are the ones that had the most significant increase in revenue contribution

To quickly determine the most influencing and rising marketing assets for a specific content type, click on the corresponding bar in the graph. The top 5 assets of each section will be displayed on the right-hand side.

By clicking again anywhere on the graph, the top 5 assets visuals will return to the default view

 

Which top 5 file categories help to achieve highest revenue?

If you're an organization that utilizes tag categories, this graph shows the revenue per tag category for your selection.

You can hover over:

• A row to see the total revenue for a specific tag category, and use the slider to see the categories on your different levels.
• The slider and click the three dot menu to reset the data to level 0 of tag categories.

What is the revenue influence per asset?

The final section of the dashboard provides detailed data, either at a broad or granular level, depending on the filters you apply. You can break down the information by asset, tag, or tag category. Once you've selected the data view you need, you can export it as CSV or XLS by clicking the three-dot menu.

How revenue influence is calculated 

This report focuses on buyer interactions with marketing content shared by sellers via email Shares, link Shares, or Shared Spaces. It specifically tracks content linked to closed-won opportunities within the selected timeframe. The totals are calculated using Salesforce's standard Amount field.

• Revenue influence looks at any content shared via email, link, or Shared Space that is logged to an opportunity in Salesforce before the opportunity's close won date
