Use follow-up report

Overview

The Follow-up report is a reporting solution that provides delivery insights for all live campaigns. Use this report to get a high-level overview of delivery performance across your website.

This report includes delivery information for website campaigns that have delivered at least one impression during the current month. The report updates daily and includes data up to the previous day (d-1).

For a campaign to appear in the follow-up report, it must meet the following criteria:

  • The start_date is before the next month.
  • The end_date is after the previous month.

Example: if a campaign starts delivering on September 15 and you download the report on September 14, the campaign doesn't appear in that report.

 

Access

To access the follow-up report, sign in to the Kamino platform and select Reporting > Follow-up from the left menu.

Generate follow-up report

To generate a billing report, select   Generate report on the right side of the report table.

Metrics

The report contains two tabs: Follow-up and KSP.

Follow-up tab

This tab provides information about display formats, with one line per format or line item. Use these KPIs to monitor and optimize your campaigns.

Optimization example

If your theoretical delivery rate is 67% but your actual delivery rate is only 32%, the delta versus trend is -34%. Because this is higher than 10%, you might need to optimize the campaign by adding keywords or categories to ensure the booked budget is spent.
