Context
You can assign weighted Engagement Minutes based on account or people data, such as industry or role.
For each field value, you'll assign a weighting percentage as the multiplier for the original Engagement Minutes.
For example, assigning a weighting percentage of 200% for anyone in a CXO role results in their activities receiving twice the amount of Engagement Minutes. Assigning a percentage of 50% for Individual Contributors results in half the amount of Engagement Minutes.
When an account or person qualifies for several criteria, the weighting is multiplied. For example, if CMO=300% and Tier 1 Account=200%, then a CMO from a Tier 1 Account earns x600% the Engagement Minutes.
Tip: A 0% weighting removes activities from the Analytics page but keeps them in the Database page. This helps filter out people or account engagement you don’t want to track, such as students, interns, or disqualified accounts.
