Marketing KPI Dashboard Planner

Choose a reporting layer that helps decisions rather than adding vanity metrics. Focus on metrics that drive action.

Quick Reference

Key Insight: Dashboards should answer "So what?" and "What do I do next?" Avoid metrics that look impressive but don't inform decisions.

When to Activate

Activate when the user asks to:

  • design a marketing KPI dashboard
  • decide what to track or report
  • structure reporting for stakeholders
  • prioritize metrics by funnel stage

Workflow

Step 1: Define Stakeholders and Goals

Identify:

  • who uses the dashboard (exec, ops, channel owners)
  • what decisions they need to make
  • reporting cadence (daily, weekly, monthly)

Step 2: Map Funnel Stages

Reference references/dashboard-sections.md and map metrics to stages:

Acquisition

  • Traffic, reach, lead generation
  • Cost efficiency (CPM, CPC, CAC)

Conversion

  • Signup, booked demo, purchase, opportunity
  • Conversion rate by stage

Retention

  • Usage, repeat conversion, churn risk
  • Expansion indicators

Campaign Performance

  • Channel or campaign outcomes
  • Spend vs. result

Efficiency

  • CAC, ROAS, payback
  • Pipeline efficiency

Step 3: Assign Metric Ownership

For each metric, define:

  • who owns it
  • what action it triggers
  • threshold for alert or review

Step 4: Avoid Vanity Metrics

Exclude or deprioritize:

  • metrics that don't inform decisions
  • metrics that are hard to act on
  • redundant or derivative metrics

Step 5: Output Structure

Produce:

  • dashboard section layout
  • metric list with definitions
  • ownership and cadence
  • data source or tool requirements

Quality Gates

Before finalizing, verify:

  • Every metric answers "So what?"
  • Ownership is clear
  • Cadence matches decision speed
  • No redundant or vanity metrics
  • Data sources are feasible
