New Features - Release 1.148 - March 9, 2023 - People profile filters, ecommerce tracking & performance

Google Analytics is your friend, be sure your GA4 is connected and consider enabling ecommerce tracking to learn more about who is booking your trips. Book in consulting if you need help getting there.

😫 Google Analytics change got you confused?

Have you been seeing this when you go to your analytics dashboard?

Not sure what this means or how to ensure your analytics continue to work after July 1, 2023?

We got you covered, just start a chat with our support team to book in your paid consulting call and we'll make sure you've got GA4 set up AND connected properly to your YouLi account so all your Trip Page activity is being tracked alongside your website.

TIP: Once you have this in place, you can purchase the ecommerce tracking add-on to see which acquisition channels produce the most bookings. A key add-on if you're using paid ads or multi-channel marketing.

 

WHAT YouLi DELIVERED THIS UPDATE

🎈 Performance Improvements...up, up and away

Things have been getting busy! We are seeing 20% more activity than just 3 months ago. 

It's great to see so many trips launching and we are responding to the increased load with more server capacity and performance optimizations. 

Thanks for your patience as we grow together!

 

🤩 Building Community on your events just got searchable (BETA)

    This feature is shiny new, so there may be some corner cases that aren't perfect, please let us know what you think.


    PLANS: Venture and Enterprise Book a call with Sales 

    • Searching and filtering are now available on your People tab.
    • If the People tab on the Trip Page is shown and you are using the new Profile & Registration Form... you will now see search and potential filters.
    • In the example below, I'm searching for Teachers who are named "Arthur."

    Search will match against any Profile Form fields that are:

    • Shown on Summary Cards
    • Single or multi-line text, most commonly:
      • First name
      • Last name
      • Mini bio
    • Rich text fields are NOT searched as they cannot be shown on summary cards

    Filter fields are shown for:

    • the first 3 profile fields that are marked as “required”
    • AND set to show on “Full Profile & Summary”
    • AND which are of the type “Select all that apply” or “Select only one”

      🎛️ Toggle whether people can view Full Profiles

      When you check the box next to People under Update Trip -> Settings

      You'll now have the option to select whether they see "Full Profiles" or just the "Summary Cards".  

      Use this in conjunction with the Profile & Registration Form Task & Who Can See This Data

      NOTE: This is a great feature for events and any trip where you want people to get to know each other before and during the event. Use the "Social Media" field type on the form to allow people to specify how they want to be contacted.

      ✅ Ecommerce tracking in Google Analytics 4 (GA4) - Register to Pay only

      Sure, you can see how much money you've made in Manage Payments, but how do you know where those people came from?

      A: Google Analytics with Ecommerce tracking enabled

      🤩 Upload multiple images/PDFs in a custom form

      • Prompt your travelers to upload up to a certain number of images or PDFs, and make that field required.
      • This should be used instead of "Enable optional document upload" and it means you can place the field where you want on the form. 

      New field type for you:

      What your traveler will see on the form:

      What your traveler will see on the Full Profile (see above to enable):

      This is an example if they upload images. If they just upload PDF files, they will be linked for download.

      If the files are set to "Planner Only", then they will not be shown on the profile. 

       

       

      👉 Encourage your Travelers to Make Accounts

      • We are seeing more travelers create YouLi accounts so they can quickly access all their trips on their dashboard. 
      • We have also seen them picking the wrong persona - so we clarified the text between 'Individual' and 'Traveler.' We expect this will help them choose 'Traveler' when signing up.
      • If they choose 'Traveler,' we do not market to them.
      • If they choose 'Individual' or 'Business' then we send them information on how to make trips on YouLi.

      TIP: White Label Domain customers will also have their logo shown on the sign-up page so their customers know they are in the right place. Interested in white label domain? Open up a chat!
