Quick answer

Marketing performance should be measured against outcomes such as leads, conversions, and revenue — not activity alone.

What to measure

Depending on your goals:

• Leads generated

• Cost per lead

• Conversion rates

• Revenue influenced by marketing

How tracking works

1. Campaigns are linked to objectives

2. Channels report performance metrics

3. Results are reviewed against targets

What you should see

Clear visibility into:

• What is working

• What is not

• Where to invest more or less

Common mistakes

• Relying on vanity metrics

• Not connecting marketing to sales outcomes

Best practice

If marketing performance cannot be explained in business terms, it is not being tracked correctly.
