Metrics Give The Midas Touch

Driven business owner: How can my company improve return on marketing campaign investment and generate more sales?

Passionate consultant: Effective plans take familiarity with processes and software, absolutely, but an understanding of marketing as a science pays dividends.

Metrics matter. Consider a Mercedes-Benz® dealership that needs the overall organization’s customer profitability indicators to improve—they need two sets of calculations.

Physical locations may measure “recency” and “customer lifetime value” (CLV); however, they need to concern themselves with their e-commerce strategy as well. The business’s goals online need to mirror their objectives offline. Therefore, their digital team can track “effective frequency” and “cost per click” (CPC).
