Generating leads is only the first step—measuring performance ensures your strategy is working and scalable. Tracking ROI helps you double down on what works and cut what doesn’t.
Why ROI Tracking Matters:
Without ROI measurement, you can’t prove value or overseas data make informed decisions. It’s critical for budgeting, reporting to stakeholders, and scaling your campaigns.
Key Metrics to Track:
Cost per Lead (CPL): Total spend divided by number of leads.
Lead Quality Score: Are the leads sales-qualified?
Conversion Rate: Percentage of leads that become paying customers.
Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC): Total cost to acquire one customer.
Lifetime Value (LTV): Projected revenue from a customer over time.
Attribution Models:
Determine how credit is assigned across touchpoints:
First-touch: Attributes conversion to the first interaction.
Last-touch: Credits the final interaction before conversion.
Multi-touch: Spreads credit across multiple steps in the journey.
