Content (please ensure you mask any confidential information):
In CRMBI we are putting together a rolled up view of our Q2 email performance across a set of campaigns and want to confirm the correct way to calculate the aggregate Open Rate and Click Through Rate at the total level.

Here is our current method and an alternative we are considering.
How we calculate it today
