Marketing Metrics 101:
How to Report ROI
© 2013 NewsCred NewsCred.com l (212) 989-4100 l sales@newscred.com
When we look at NewsCred’s marketing goals and success, our number one priority is to
prove the value and growth of revenue derived from our marketing efforts. To accomplish
this we analyze each tactic in detail across all our channels. This helps us prove the
value of marketing – not just as a cost center, but as a true profit center. We update this
dashboard monthly to understand and optimize our performance, and tie our marketing
and sales efforts together in a more tangible way.
This particular dashboard is customized to track monthly SaaS marketing metrics. Other
metrics to indicate the health of a business include renewal/upsell bookings, renewal rates
by dollar and customer, and churn rates.
*These numbers have been modified.

Average Lifetime: A measure of both contract
length and client health, this is the average length
of the entire future relationship with a single
customer. As you close longer length contracts
and turn new clients into successful returning
customers, this number will improve.
Cost Per Lead (CPL): The cost of acquiring a new
sales lead. As you scale, costs per lead should
decrease. Prolonged high CPLs are cause for
concern.
Conversion Rate: The rate at which leads turn into
closed deals. This measures the quality of leads
and your effectiveness of your sales process.
Deals Closed: The number of signed contracts
(closed sales deals). Which marketing channel
produces the highest number of deals? Are any
channels producing opportunities at a faster or
slower rate than others?
Lifetime Value (LTV): This is a topline estimate
of total contract value. LTV is calculated by the
average MRR per customer * average lifetime +
one-time fees.
Net LTV / Customer: Average profit per customer *
Average Lifetime. This is a bottom line estimate of
total contract value. Does this vary by channel and
what are the trends per channel and overall?
Gross Margin: Calculated by profit divided by
revenue. Keep a close eye on this one!
Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
per Customer: The predictable, recurring
revenue of a subscription-based business. Which
customers are returning? Are you consistently
increasing the average deal size? Is there a
correlation between average deal size and
average lifetime?
Months to Break-even: The expected number
of months a customer must pay a recurring fee
to recover the cost of acquiring a new customer,
given monthly profit. If this number is growing, you
need to reconsider deal sizes and contract lengths
and be stricter about avoiding lower-paying
customers, which are at a higher risk of churn early
in their contracts.
Total Costs: You should consider all costs of sales
and marketing (overhead included) to see your
efficacy of expenditure in generating both leads
and revenue.
Total Leads: The number of total leads generated
by sales and marketing activities. How many leads
does $X buy you? Are you reaching a ceiling in
some channels?
Net LTV / CAC: This is the holy grail of marketing
analytics. The ratio shows how many times greater
our Net Lifetime Value per customer is than
Customer Acquisition Cost. It represents how many
dollars of profit for each dollar spent. For example,
a ratio of 1 is breakeven while a ratio of ≥ 3 is a
healthy long term goal for a SaaS company.

To accomplish this we analyze each tactic in detail across all our channels. This helps us prove the value of marketing – not just as a cost center, but as a true profit center. We update this dashboard monthly to understand and optimize our performance, and tie our marketing and sales efforts together in a more tangible way. This particular dashboard is customized to track monthly SaaS marketing metrics. Other metrics to indicate the health of a business include renewal/upsell bookings, renewal rates by dollar and customer, and churn rates. *These numbers have been modified.

  • 3. © 2013 NewsCred 3 Average Lifetime: A measure of both contract length and client health, this is the average length of the entire future relationship with a single customer. As you close longer length contracts and turn new clients into successful returning customers, this number will improve. Cost Per Lead (CPL): The cost of acquiring a new sales lead. As you scale, costs per lead should decrease. Prolonged high CPLs are cause for concern. Conversion Rate: The rate at which leads turn into closed deals. This measures the quality of leads and your effectiveness of your sales process. Deals Closed: The number of signed contracts (closed sales deals). Which marketing channel produces the highest number of deals? Are any channels producing opportunities at a faster or slower rate than others? Lifetime Value (LTV): This is a topline estimate of total contract value. LTV is calculated by the average MRR per customer * average lifetime + one-time fees. Net LTV / Customer: Average profit per customer * Average Lifetime. This is a bottom line estimate of total contract value. Does this vary by channel and what are the trends per channel and overall? Gross Margin: Calculated by profit divided by revenue. Keep a close eye on this one! Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) per Customer: The predictable, recurring revenue of a subscription-based business. Which customers are returning? Are you consistently increasing the average deal size? Is there a correlation between average deal size and average lifetime? Months to Break-even: The expected number of months a customer must pay a recurring fee to recover the cost of acquiring a new customer, given monthly profit. If this number is growing, you need to reconsider deal sizes and contract lengths and be stricter about avoiding lower-paying customers, which are at a higher risk of churn early in their contracts. Total Costs: You should consider all costs of sales and marketing (overhead included) to see your efficacy of expenditure in generating both leads and revenue. Total Leads: The number of total leads generated by sales and marketing activities. How many leads does $X buy you? Are you reaching a ceiling in some channels? Net LTV / CAC: This is the holy grail of marketing analytics. The ratio shows how many times greater our Net Lifetime Value per customer is than Customer Acquisition Cost. It represents how many dollars of profit for each dollar spent. For example, a ratio of 1 is breakeven while a ratio of ≥ 3 is a healthy long term goal for a SaaS company. © 2013 NewsCred 3 Glossary.
