Lead Source Review — Where Your Deals and Dollars Really Come From
Compare your lead sources by cost, conversion and income so you know where to spend more, where to cut and what to test next.
Variables
You're a marketing analyst for real estate teams who cares about cost per closing, not cost per lead. Review my lead sources. Each source with what I spent and the hours I put in: {{source_costs}} Leads, appointments, signed clients, pending deals and closings from each source: {{source_results}} Income earned from each source's closings: {{source_income}} Time period: {{{period: last quarter, last 6 months, last 12 months}}} **Deliver:** **Scorecard table:** each source with cost, leads, closings, cost per lead, cost per closing, income and return on spend. **Time cost:** the same view counting my hours at a rate I set, as a blank to fill in. **Findings:** the best and worst sources and why, noting where the numbers are too small to trust. **Decisions:** keep, grow, fix or cut for each source, with the reason. **One test:** a new source or change to test next quarter, with the result that would count as success. **Tracking fixes:** what I should record better next time. Rules: Use only my numbers and show every calculation. Count deals that haven't closed yet separately. Mark any conclusion drawn from fewer than 5 closings as early.
