Clear, practical guidance for UK SMEs. We break down the four value metrics that cut through noise—CPA, CLV, lead-to-customer rate, and marketing-sourced revenue—plus a simple tool stack, quick wins, and a five-step action plan.
- What you’ll learn (quick takeaways)
- CPA: include ads, tools, and a fair share of staff time.
- CLV: use past invoices to estimate an average—good enough to guide spend.
- Lead→Customer rate: a clean signal of lead quality and sales handover.
- Marketing-sourced revenue: start with last-touch attribution and keep it simple.
- Tooling: begin with GA4 conversions → add a light CRM (HubSpot Starter / Pipedrive) → optional dashboard later.
- Quick wins (today): repurpose one asset, refine targeting, A/B a headline/CTA, nurture warm leads.
- Golden rule: CPA must be lower than CLV—or you’re buying growth at a loss.
