Daily KPIs for Cart Abandonment Monitoring
Daily KPI monitoring is about anomaly detection, not trend analysis. You are watching for sudden changes that signal a problem: a technical bug, a failed campaign, an external factor that spiked abandonment. Weekly monitoring is sufficient for trend analysis and optimization decisions. Daily monitoring is your early warning system.
Daily Monitoring Dashboard
| KPI | Normal Range | Alert Threshold | Action If Triggered |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cart abandonment rate | Your 7-day avg +/- 5% | +10% above avg | Check for technical issues, compare traffic sources |
| Recovery email open rate | 35-45% (Email 1) | Below 25% | Check deliverability, sender reputation |
| Recovery conversion rate | Your 30-day avg | 50% below avg | Check recovery landing page, campaign changes |
| Recovered revenue (daily) | Your typical daily avg | Zero for 2+ days | Check campaign active status and triggers |
