Certainly! Below is a tracking requirement document for a signup journey in Mixpanel, structured according to your requested template. The content is based strictly on Mixpanel’s recommended tracking plan methodology and best practices for handling different registration scenarios or flows.---
User Story
As a product team, we want to track all user sign-up journeys—including different registration scenarios (e.g., via homepage, mobile app, social login, referral, etc.)—so that we can understand which flows drive the most sign-ups, identify drop-off points, and optimize the onboarding experience.---
Key Questions
- Which registration flows (e.g., homepage, mobile app, social login, referral) are most commonly used? - What is the conversion rate for each registration scenario? - Where do users drop off in the signup process? - Which acquisition channels (e.g., paid, organic, referral) drive the most successful sign-ups? - How do different signup flows impact downstream engagement and retention?---
Key Deliverables
- A centralized tracking plan document outlining:
- The main “Sign Up” event, with properties to distinguish registration scenarios/flows.
- Event properties such as signup_flow
, signup_platform
, source
, country
, and os
.
- User identification strategy to unify anonymous and authenticated events.
- Implementation of event tracking in all relevant registration flows.
- Dashboards and reports in Mixpanel to analyze sign-up performance by flow, channel, and platform.---
Mixpanel Update
Event:
Sign Up
Event Properties:
- signup_flow
(e.g., homepage, mobile_app, social_login, referral)
- signup_platform
(e.g., web, iOS, Android)
- source
(e.g., referral, organic, paid)
- country
- os
- Any other relevant context (e.g., campaign_id
for marketing attribution)User Identification:
Ensure that when a user completes sign-up, their anonymous events are merged with their authenticated profile using a unique user ID as the Distinct ID. This allows for accurate cross-device and pre/post-signup journey analysis. Refer to Mixpanel’s identity management best practices for implementation details.**Example Event Tracking (JavaScript):**LBKSmixpanel.track('Sign Up', { 'signup_flow': 'homepage', 'signup_platform': 'web', 'source': 'referral', 'country': 'United States', 'os': 'Windows' });LBKS
