“Choose no more than five key metrics. It’s hard to put organizational focus on more than that, so choose wisely.”- Paul Albright, Chief Revenue Officer, Marketo

Marketing ROI, or return on investment, is the practice of attributing profit and revenue growth to the impact marketing initiatives. By calculating marketing ROI, organizations can measure the degree to which marketing efforts either holistically, or on a campaign-basis, contribute to revenue growth. Typically, marketing ROI is used to justify marketing spend and budget allocation for ongoing and future campaigns and initiatives.
