Track & Optimize Performance

During BFCM, every message, click, and order counts. Tracking your performance ensures that you know which campaigns drive revenue, and A/B testing helps you optimize for maximum results - not just during Black Friday but throughout the holiday season.

In 2024, brands using WhatsApp with charles achieved:

  • €3.07 Revenue per Recipient (RPR) on average (34% above long-term benchmarks).

  • 28x ROAS on WhatsApp campaigns.

The takeaway? Measurement and optimization turn conversations into real sales impact.


✅ Why tracking matters

  • Optimize campaigns: identify winning formats and improve future sends.

  • Save costs: focus budget and effort where ROI is highest.

  • Ensure reliability: confirm your setup works smoothly before peak days.


1. How to track BFCM campaigns

  • Google Analytics / UTM tracking → attribute clicks to revenue.

  • Unique discount codes → measure WhatsApp-driven orders.

  • Profile-based attribution → match WhatsApp numbers with purchases.


2. Test & optimize with A/B testing

  • Identify goals (e.g. higher click-through rate).

  • Choose metrics (CTR, conversion, revenue per send).

  • Segment audience into similar groups.

  • Develop variants (e.g. message copy, image vs. text-only, offer size).

  • Adopt best practices by applying learnings quickly to the next send.


Rare fact 💡

77% of consumers use 3 - 4 channels when shopping. Ensure your tracking compares performance across channels, not just within WhatsApp.
