## Direct Answer

Marketing ROI compares the money earned from marketing with the money spent on it. Calculate it using net marketing revenue and total marketing expenditure, while recording costs, enquiries, conversions and revenue consistently. Customer acquisition cost, customer lifetime value and lead attribution help connect campaign activity with new customers and sales.

## The short answer

Marketing ROI compares the money earned from marketing with the money spent on it. The calculation is only as good as the records behind it: costs, enquiries, conversions and revenue need to be identified consistently.

## What to consider

A business can record campaign and agency costs, then connect enquiries to a source where practical. Track outcomes that matter to the business, such as qualified enquiries, bookings, sales or repeat purchases. Likes and impressions may provide context, but they are not revenue on their own.

## A practical way to approach it

Agree on what counts as a lead and a sale before a campaign starts. Record follow-up outcomes, use consistent source labels and allow for a realistic sales cycle. Avoid claiming that one channel caused every sale when customers may have seen several messages before contacting the business.
