YOU HAVE TOO MANY METRICS
Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter
Only track metrics that prompt action when outside expected bounds. Because they are costly to set up and maintain, each must justify its existence. Effective metrics are reviewed regularly, have clear expectations, and trigger responses when they deviate. Without this, metrics become noise or vanity data. A small set of well-maintained, actionable metrics is more valuable than large dashboards of unused numbers.
