5 Key Metrics for Measuring Digital Marketing ROI

Tracking ROI is essential to understand if your marketing efforts are delivering real results. Here are five key metrics every business should monitor:

1. Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)

The total cost of acquiring one customer, including ad spend, salaries, and software.

  • Helps evaluate if strategies are cost-effective.

2. Conversion Rate

The percentage of visitors who take the desired action (purchase, signup, etc.).

  • Low rates may signal issues with landing pages or messaging.

3. Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)

The total revenue a customer generates throughout their relationship with your brand.

  • Useful for comparing acquisition costs with long-term profitability.

4. Return on Ad Spend (ROAS)

Revenue earned for every dollar spent on ads.

  • A direct measure of advertising effectiveness

5. Traffic-to-Lead Ratio

Shows how well website visitors convert into leads.

  • High traffic but low leads indicates weak content or offers.

  • Regularly tracking these metrics provides clarity on what’s working and what needs improvement.
