Creating your first performance reports

1. Lead source reports

Lead reports allow you to explore further information regarding your lead sources.

Leads by channel

Start with segmenting leads by channel to evaluate which channels drove the largest number of leads.

Leads by campaign

Focus on a specific channel, like Search Paid (Google Ads), and group your leads by campaign to see which one is contributing the most leads.

Leads by keyword

If you want to analyze a specific campaign more thoroughly, consider segmenting leads further with the “Volume of Leads by Keyword” report.

2. Sales and revenue source reports

Although we have identified the sources responsible for the most leads, we need to investigate: are these leads converting into sales and revenue?

Utilizing a CRM such as ClickUp helps you analyze the sales performance of your leads by channel and source.

By leveraging this insight, you can advance your marketing strategy to support channels that drive the most revenue.

To provide context, we will discuss the following scenario:

ChannelsSearch PaidSocial Paid
Leads5075
Sales56
Avg. Order Value$150$100
Revenue$750$600

Following your campaigns on Google and Facebook, the initial “Leads by Channel” report indicated that Social Paid ads had a greater impact on lead generation compared to Search Paid ads.

After a few weeks of analysis, you notice that the leads converting to paying customers demonstrate that the Search Paid channel earned more revenue from a smaller lead pool than the Social Paid channel.
