ROAS, or Return on All Sales and Marketing Spend, is a game-changer for businesses. Kyle explains how combining marketing and sales budgets into one metric helps businesses measure efficiency and identify opportunities for growth.
[00:33:00] The Revenue Cascade Framework
Kyle explains the Revenue Cascade, a simple but effective process that tracks your customer journey:
- Awareness: How many people are learning about your brand?
- Interest: How many are engaging with your content?
- Action: How many take the next step, like scheduling a call or requesting more information?
- Conversion: How many become paying customers?
By analyzing these stages, businesses can identify where they’re losing potential customers and develop strategies to fix those leaks.
