CAC vs. LTV
Compare customer acquisition cost to lifetime value to ensure each segment and channel can scale profitably. Track how strategy shifts (e.g., new ICP or messaging) move the ratio over quarters.
Pipeline contribution by initiative
Attribute qualified pipeline and revenue to strategic bets (e.g., new market entry, repositioning) so you can prove which strategic moves matter, not just which tactics fire.
Share of voice & SOV efficiency
Measure branded and category visibility versus competitors and tie it to cost per impression or engagement. Use it to decide where to invest for awareness without overspending.
Goal attainment & forecast accuracy
Score how often strategic targets (revenue, leads, retention) are hit on time and how close forecasts were to reality. Improving accuracy usually means clearer assumptions and better cross-functional alignment.
