 What is ROI in marketing?

 Marketing return on investment (ROI) is the practice of measuring the profit and revenue growth resulting from marketing initiatives. By calculating the return on marketing investment, organizations can measure the extent to which marketing activities, either holistic or on a campaign-by-campaign basis, affect revenue growth. Marketing ROI is generally used to justify marketing spend and budget allocation for current and future campaigns and initiatives.

 At the organizational level, calculating the return on marketing investments can help guide business decisions and optimize marketing activities. Understanding the ROI of a campaign helps marketers accomplish a number of key tasks, and IDMap has the capability to address the following integral areas:

 Marketing Spend Qualification

 CMOs consistently cite allocating resources and budget to marketing  as a top priority. However, in order to secure the budget and resources for future campaigns, it is important that the current marketing costs and budget are justified at the management level. To do this, marketers must accurately calculate the return on investment that their marketing efforts will generate for the organization. For example, they should know if native ads are converting and generating ROI while display ads are falling. From there, budgets can be properly allocated.

 Share marketing budgets

 Online and offline channels have countless possible marketing mixes. However, all combinations of campaign initiatives require funding. That's why it's important to understand which online and offline efforts generate the most revenue in order to properly allocate your marketing budget.

 Measuring Campaign Success and Establishing Baselines

 A key part of a successful marketing team is the ability to measure campaign success and establish baselines that can be used for future efforts. With that in mind, accurately measuring ROI helps marketers do both. By understanding the impact of individual campaigns on overall revenue growth, marketers can better identify the right mix of offline and online campaigns. Additionally, consistently measuring ROI  allows marketers to establish baselines to quickly measure success and adjust efforts  to maximize impact.

 Competitive Analysis

 Tracking competitors' marketing ROI  allows marketers to  understand exactly how their organization is performing in their particular industry. For example, marketers who monitor publicly available financial data can estimate competitors' ROI  and adjust fundamentals based on those estimates. This will help keep your efforts consistently competitive.
