- 6. Terminology A/B Test vs. 10/10/80 Test 10/10/80 Tests are quick, short-term tests. Often times the test results aren’t reusable. You’re looking for a quick boost on open rates or click-thru by testing subject lines or senders. ● 10% get Subject Line A, 10% get Subject Line B, with the winning subject line going to the remaining 80% A/B Tests are 50/50 split tests where you’re looking for statistically significant results that will be applied to future campaigns. #ENCCDC19 #TestRinseRepeat @HRC @LautmanDC

- Who’s testing every campaign? Testing once a year? Really wants to start testing. What are the obstacles people are facing with testing? Risk aversion -- can afford to sacrifice revenue on a test A/B Split Test -- 50/50 through a whole campaign -- 10/10/80 Test -- Subject Line (20% of list is test bed, 80% get the winner, so 90% will get the winning version) Add Resources (non-Engaging Networks) -- -- Which Test Won -- How to watch other non-profit emails and commercial emails to find testing ideas.
- Highlight for both speakers how long they’ve been working with Engaging Networks (over 4 years each)
- After agenda breakdown -- ask what people are currently testing; what they’re thinking about testing, where the roadblocks are with their testing plans.
- Pause for questions at the end
- Ann’s Prompt-Questions n As a “boss” or digital program stakeholder, how do you feel about digital testing? What makes you most excited & most nervous about new tests being proposed? n Now HRC is a huge organization – not everyone in this room has the type of resources, both budget & staff, to do digital testing regularly. For everyone here – I’m going to ask you to think back to 2009-2010, when HRC’s digital was a fraction of what it is now and there wasn’t as much budget or staff power as you have now – what are some of things we did back then, that are still applicable now? o Lindsey’s example – find your smart interns who are wanting to show-off their skills. HRC’s first Facebook app was built and ran by an intern and that Facebook app set-off a massive wave of attention and change for HRC’s digital program – 100s of thousands of new people recruited, without any expense – just intern staff time. n When your team or your consultants come to you with testing ideas, what are the three things they need to include in their proposals in order to make the best case – to help you understand the goal and impact of the test? o This is where you talk about the initial investment and the long-term ROI, for example! n Once these folks in here get their boss’s on their side and passionate about digital testing, they’re going to need their boss to get other stakeholders supporting digital testing. What information or documentation do you need Ann, as a boss, in order to talk to other bosses/stakeholders – like the Executive Director?
