How do I analyze Cyber Monday performance?

As an e-commerce manager, I'm struggling to comprehensively evaluate my Cyber Monday sales performance beyond basic revenue numbers. I need a systematic approach to understand not just how much I sold, but why I sold what I did, which strategies worked best, and how to improve for next year. I want to dive deep into metrics that reveal true performance insights, customer behavior patterns, and potential areas for optimization across my entire sales funnel during this critical shopping event.
