Quantiles give you gift buckets of equal size. Histograms give you gift buckets of equal size gift range. However, you CAN still do analysis when buckets are not equal size, and it's especially useful for when you've done an AB test on your ask strings to determine movement. It's one thing to look at number of gifts and total amount, but it's another to look at whether people select different amounts or write in their own at high frequency. Check out the video on gift buckets to see more, or our video on quantiles to look specifically that those. #fundraisingmetrics https://lnkd.in/grFbNpGZ
