FAQs about metrics strategy and business case development

What’s the difference between a content metric and a business KPI?

Content metrics, such as bounce rate, page views, and downloads, measure the performance of specific pieces of content. Business KPI connect content to broader goals, such as revenue, retention, and operational efficiency.

How do you measure the ROI of content?

We calculate ROI by comparing the cost of content initiatives against measurable outcomes. For example, installing a componentised content management system delivers a favorable ROI if the expenses, which include personnel salaries and equipment purchases, are less than the profits, which include shorter publication timelines, staff reductions, and faster localisation.

Can you help us define metrics if we don’t have much data yet?

Yes. We start with your business objectives and customer journeys to identify what to track. Then we help you establish baselines, even if you’re just getting started with data.
