When creating a dashboard for a CEO, opt to display simple and comprehensive KPIs like “revenue” rather than “click-through rate (CTR)”.
This is because CEOs want to have a bird-eye’s view of marketing effectiveness and they won’t be able to tell immediately how CTRs contribute to business value. Give them the most relevant information so they can quickly skim it in the least amount of time.
Some other KPIs that CEOs would be interested in include:
Conversions
Customer acquisition cost (CAC)
Impressions
Clicks and online engagement
Increase on website traffic
