Understanding Response Rate
The response rate is a crucial metric for measuring engagement. It tells you what proportion of your audience responded to your invitation. The formula used is:
Response Rate = Number of Responses / Number of Invitations

- Surveys: Determine how many people saw your survey invitation and actually completed it.
- Event invitations: Measure attendance rate for your events.
- Product launches: Assess interest in new products or services.
