In today's Monday Motivation episode of the Grow Your Brand vodcast, Lauren Kress is talking marketing metrics to help you figure out how to give your marketing performance a boost and achieve your business goals.

This episode features further discussion about the sales as a science system and how you can begin to use benchmarks and your own baseline data to determine what efforts you need to double down on to generate leads and sales and where you need improvement.

Lauren also discusses examples for where a marketing strategy may need to be discontinued or abandoned and how you can also begin to calculate the budgets required to get the revenue performance you desire.
