marketing measurement and metrics Marketing professionals from the CMO on down are under relentless pressure to prove their worth to the organization. As a result, marketers everywhere have embraced metrics and performance measurement. Marketing measurement and marketing metrics are ways to justify budgets based on returns and to drive growth and innovation. But metrics not developed and used properly will be to no avail. Too often, marketers are offered a genericlist of metrics to track. And too many marketers fall victim to measuring siloed marketing tactics such as Web analytics, response rates, awareness or results from other activities. To be effective and demonstrate value, overall marketing performance must be linked to relevant business outcomes.
