Guru’s Content Performance feature integrates with Salesforce. When your reps send sales assets through trackable links, Guru connects the prospect’s contact information to open opportunities and accounts influenced by this trackable asset. To view the analytics for Content Performance, refer to the following two tabs under Analytics in Guru:

Through the Content Performance Sales Engagement Analytics Dashboard, you can measure the total amount of opportunities influenced by the content your reps are using during the sales process, identify top performers, and understand what assets are most valuable at particular stages of the buyer's journey.

In the Sales Activity Analytics Dashboard, you can track what content your reps are sharing with prospects broken down by Salesforce contact and opportunity, and understand when this content is sent or clicked at a particular stage.

Content Performance Analytics are designed to help you identify trends, opportunities, and gaps to better inform your Product Marketing strategy.

Using Sales Engagement and Sales Activity Analytics

  • To see these analytics, navigate to the Guru web app and select Analytics.
    The Sales Engagement tab: provides information on the Sales team’s use of content and the opportunities influenced.
    The Sales Activity tab: displays a breakdown of content sent by reps to particular contacts/opportunities, along with the click status.

  • Opportunities or Accounts “Influenced” are those that have interacted with a trackable asset.

Sales Activity

The Sales Activity view allows you to see a feed of what content your team has been using to win deals. Filters allow you to isolate activity by a certain user, Account, Opportunity, or Stage.

The Sales Activity dashboard provides insight by day into:

  • All the tracked links sent by users

  • The associated Recipient, Account and Opportunity

  • The stage at which the asset was sent

  • Whether or not the prospect interacted with the link


💡 Tip

This information allows you to better coach your Sales team on the assets they should be sending, when to share certain content, as well as how to present certain assets. As a marketing organization, you can utilize this information to evaluate which assets are and aren't influencing opportunities for your company.
