Skip to content Measurement Goals
- Summarize the business questions this Mixpanel implementation must answer.
- Map key conversion points, retention loops, or content journeys to measurable events.
- Note any contractual SLAs for reporting or attribution accuracy.
Core Event Inventory
- List launch-critical events with brief descriptions and triggering criteria.
- Document required properties/parameters for each event, including identity hints.
- Identify dependencies on upstream systems (checkout, CRM, POS, kiosk) that emit data.
Supporting Event Families
- Outline secondary events that enrich analysis (UX interactions, feature adoption, media engagement).
- Group events by channel or feature to simplify QA and maintenance.
- Mark backlog ideas that should be captured in future sprints.
QA & Validation Checklist
- Describe the tools used to inspect events (vendor debugger, Charles, HAR files, mobile proxies).
- Capture who signs off on each event before promotion to production.
- Note automated tests or alerts that watch for event volume drops or schema drift.
Documentation & Ownership
- Link back to the master tracking plan and any analytics dictionaries.
- Assign owners for maintaining event definitions and triaging change requests.
