Key Takeaways
- Treating all metrics as KPIs is over-thinking strategy, so instead, we should focus on one particular relevant and useful KPI as it will allow you to accomplish what you set out to do.
- When we don’t know how to properly read and interpret data, gathering it often causes more problems than it solves.
- Ensure that the channel is in harmony with the content and target group. For example, targeting young people on LinkedIn with video marketing is obviously a bad choice.
