The building blocks

What goes into KPI Framework

Marketing KPI Tree

How I do it

The process

  1. 1

    Objectives

    Business goals.

  2. 2

    Decompose

    Outcome = drivers × drivers.

  3. 3

    Target

    Baselines + ambition.

  4. 4

    Govern

    Owners and reviews.

Principles I follow
  • Few KPIs, clear owners.
  • Distinguish leading and lagging indicators.
  • Review cadence matched to how fast a metric moves.

Measurement

The numbers I watch

Tools I use

  • LSGoogle Looker Studio
  • G4Google Analytics (GA4)

What you get

  • KPI tree
  • Metric dictionary
  • Target sheet
Too many KPIs

Monthly report has 40 'KPIs'.

Reduce to 5 outcomes with drivers in appendix.

Illustrative example
KPI vs metric?

Every KPI is a metric; only metrics tied to objectives are KPIs.
