If you cannot measure your marketing, you cannot improve it. However, many business owners get distracted by “vanity metrics”—numbers that look impressive on paper but do not actually correlate to revenue. Getting 10,000 likes on a Facebook post is useless if it resulted in zero sales. To scale your business, you must focus on the metrics that dictate profitability.
Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)
This is the most important metric in digital marketing. How much does it cost you in advertising spend to acquire one paying customer? If your custom software package yields a profit of BDT 50,000, and you spend BDT 10,000 on Google Ads to acquire that lead, your campaign is highly profitable. If your CAC ever exceeds your profit margin, you must pause your ads immediately and optimize your funnel.
Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)
CLV measures the total revenue a single customer will generate over their entire relationship with your business. If a client pays you BDT 20,000 a month for server maintenance, and they stay with you for an average of 3 years, their CLV is BDT 720,000. Knowing your CLV allows you to confidently spend more money upfront to acquire high-value leads, easily outbidding your competitors.
Conversion Rate by Channel
Do not just look at your overall website traffic. Break it down by source. Are the people coming from organic Google searches converting at 5%, while the people coming from Facebook Ads are only converting at 0.5%? This data tells you exactly where to shift your marketing budget. Double down on the channels that bring in buyers, and cut funding to the channels that only bring in browsers.
