Dashboard setup

Introduction

A good dashboard shows you what to do next. But most marketing dashboards are either too shallow to be useful or so detailed no one actually uses them.

This playbook shows you how to build a dashboard that helps you steer your growth efforts with confidence. You’ll learn how to bring together the key numbers from across traffic, funnel performance, sales pipeline and lifetime value, all in one clear view.

The goal is to create a daily and weekly snapshot that helps you make better decisions, spot issues early and track progress without digging into five different tools.

If you want a way to keep your growth metrics in check without getting buried in noise, this dashboard structure is a good place to start. It gives your team the clarity to focus and the context to move faster.
