For a conceptual overview of Goals, the Auxia hierarchy, and Value Events, see Goals in Product Concepts.

3.1 Goal Portfolio

The Goal Portfolio shows all goals configured for your company.

Accessing the Goal Portfolio

Navigate to: Configuration > Company > Goals

Goal Portfolio Columns

Goal Details

Click any goal to view:
  • Full description
  • Linked value events and their weights
  • Associated journeys (Evergreen and Burst)
  • Performance summary

3.2 Goal Configuration

Goals are configured at the company level, typically by admins.

Who Can Configure Goals

Creating a Goal (Admin Reference)

Goal creation involves three steps: Step 1: Configuration
  • Goal name and description
Step 2: Success Definition
  • Select value events that indicate success
  • Assign weights to each event (if multiple)
Step 3: Review
  • Confirm settings before creation

Goal Properties

For Marketers: You typically won’t create goals yourself. Check with your admin to see what goals are available, or request new ones if needed.

3.3 Goals in Analytics

Goals are central to Auxia Console’s analytics capabilities.

Goal Analytics

Navigate to: Analytics > Goal Analytics Key Metrics:

Understanding Uplift

Uplift measures the incremental impact of your personalization efforts:
Example:
  • Treatment Rate: 5% (users who saw your treatments)
  • Control Rate: 4% (users who didn’t)
  • Uplift: (5% - 4%) / 4% = 25% uplift
This means your treatments drove 25% more conversions than would have happened naturally.

Home Dashboard Goal KPIs

The Home Dashboard displays Goal KPIs at the top:
  • One card per active goal
  • Shows conversion rate and trend
  • Click to drill into Goal Analytics

3.4 Best Practices

Defining Effective Goals

Do:
  • Use clear, measurable outcomes
  • Align goals with business KPIs
  • Define specific success events
  • Review goals quarterly
Don’t:
  • Create too many overlapping goals
  • Use vague outcomes (“improve experience”)
  • Forget to link journeys to goals
  • Ignore goal analytics

Goal Naming Conventions

Use descriptive names that indicate the desired outcome: Good:
  • “Increase Q1 Purchases”
  • “Boost Premium Subscriptions”
  • “Reduce Cart Abandonment”
Avoid:
  • “Goal 1”
  • “Test”
  • “Marketing Campaign”
