“Every business gets phone calls,” says Bradley Reynolds, chief executive officer of Mongoose Metrics. “And with our technology, we can expose who is calling along with a rich trove of information and comprehensive marketing behavioral analysis."
   The partnership between Mongoose Metrics and Webtrends enables clients to answer formerly mysterious marketing questions such as:
 
  • Do my Web marketing campaigns generate phone calls?
  • Do these phone calls generate revenue?
  • Do certain pages or sections of my website cause visitors to pick up the phone? Do they take action over the phone?
  • Do prospects who call end up back on the site? Do they end up purchasing online?

Integrated solutions between Mongoose Metrics and Webtrends answer these questions and more by tracking individual sessions from web to phone by delivering important data about the phone call back into web analytics. “The Webtrends Open Exchange Network makes it easy for data to flow between Webtrends and our partners, enabling true cross-channel analysis and optimization,” says Jeff Seacrist, product marketing director for Webtrends Open Exchange. He adds, “We’re pleased to partner with Mongoose Metrics to provide our customers with a seamless way to understand the role the phone plays in optimizing online interactions and conversions.”
                    
Furthermore, the Mongoose/Webtrends Integration lets Webtrends users visualize the entire path to calls, a call count as a product conversion against campaigns and products sales performance by campaign.    
   
“Every business gets phone calls,” says Bradley Reynolds, chief executive officer of Mongoose Metrics. “And with our technology, we can expose who is calling along with a rich trove of information including why they are calling, what they are looking for as well as a comprehensive marketing behavioral analysis,” he adds.

About Call Tracking
Call tracking is one method of lead generation measurement that brings substantial and highly measurable insight to the issue of understanding online to offline conversions. It enables clients to migrate from merely tracking the number of phone calls they receive from online advertising campaigns to understanding each caller’s online behavior and buying persona.

More importantly, phone call tracking allows businesses to calculate financial success for every form of advertising they are paying for. With call tracking, marketers now have an increasingly powerful tool to not only measure -- but also analyze -- offline conversions (phone calls) to more effectively determine success and make informed spending decisions.
