What is a cross-channel PPC dashboard?

A cross-channel PPC dashboard is a marketing reporting tool that marketing agencies and brands use to compile, visualize, and analyze their ad campaigns. It’s an effective way to present key PPC metrics and KPIs from different data sources.

Manage all your clients’ campaigns with Adriel’s comprehensive PPC report template, report multiple channels, compare their performance and highlight key info for all stakeholders.

Why do you need a PPC dashboard?

If you’re a marketing agency ready to scale-up, a PPC dashboard can save you hundreds of hours on tedious, manual tasks. With automated software, you’ll be able to see the key insights from all your clients’ ad campaigns and take advantage of opportunities in a snap.

Compared to spreadsheets, the data on marketing dashboards is live. Once you’ve connected to your Google Ads, Facebook Ads, or any other channel, the dashboard automatically streams campaign performance onto the user-interface in real-time. Take advantage of opportunities fast and fix issues as they arise.

Some dashboards, like Adriel, also allow you to set custom alerts to monitor PPC performance. Instantly see whether your clients’ campaigns are hitting the KPIs you set, or falling behind. Confidently reallocate ad dollars to cash cows and optimize ROAS for each client.

And when the time comes for client reporting, you can simply use dashboard templates to download beautifully white-labeled PDF or CSV reports in minutes.

How do you make a KPI dashboard?

You should structure your marketing dashboard the way you write stories—with a clear beginning, middle, and end.
Divide your dashboard into three levels: top, middle, and bottom.

At the top, include:

Your brand / client’s visuals (name, logo, taglines)
Data stories
An overview of business metrics or compared with a specific time period

The middle section should analyze these KPIs in more detail:

Performance trends visualized in different types of graphs
Relationships between one KPI and another
Causes and effects

Finally, drill down to granular data:

Marketing mix
Details of ad campaignsAd creative insights (e.g. ad copy, photos, videos)Analysis of creative intelligence (e.g. keywords, colors, emojis)
Ad creative insights (e.g. ad copy, photos, videos)
Analysis of creative intelligence (e.g. keywords, colors, emojis)

What should be included in a PPC Report?

Clicks Overview

Impressions

Impressions are the total number of times any of your webpages or your ads appear in search engine results and are viewed by users.

You can measure ad impressions through Adriel’s marketing dashboard across multiple ad channels, creatives, keywords, and audiences.

Link Clicks

Link clicks are the total number of times the links in your ad copy, call-to-action, or images have been clicked.

These links can lead to destinations within or outside of the platform where you’ve launched your ad, such as your landing page, social media profile, or a blog post. This is also a key metric for SEO.

Click-through rates (CTR)

Click-through rates measure the number of clicks you receive on an advertisement—per the number of impressions.

Generally, high CTRs mean that your ads were successful in attracting the attention of your target audience. High CTRs can also lead to lower advertising costs on advertising platforms like Google Ads. This article lists the average CTRs for all your favorite PPC channels.

Cost Overview

Cost-per-click (CPC)

Cost-per-click (CPC), similar to pay-per-click, is a popular programmatic advertising term where you pay an ad seller a cost every time someone clicks on an ad.

Different social media platforms, search engines, and programmatic publishers set different CPCs. They can range anywhere from $0.4 (Twitter Ads) to $6 (LinkedIn Ads). Get the average CPCs for your industry here.

Cost-per-mile (CPM)

Cost-per-mile (CPM) is the amount you pay for every 1000 impressions that your ad garnered. The CPM on different ad channels depends on a number of factors, such as the target audience, ad format, and the level of competition for ad space.

Cost-per-conversion (CPCV)

Everything comes with a cost, even conversions. Cost-per-conversion, or also known as cost-per-acquisition (CPA) pits the total revenue gained from an ad campaign against the total cost of that campaign.

CPCV is one of the easiest and most effective ways to determine if your ads are working. If your CPCV is too high, it could mean you have the wrong keywords, visuals, target audience, or channel. This is why it’s important to have a PPC reporting tool that lets you see super granular data as well as essential KPIs.

Conversions Overview

Conversions revenue

Revenue is the most rudimentary metric you can track on your report, but it helps you and your clients understand which campaigns or channels are bringing in money and which are draining your wallet. When you have this data, you can devise well-informed strategies in the future.
‍
On Adriel’s PPC dashboard, you can view the total revenue for your ad campaigns across multiple digital channels, from LinkedIn Ads and Bing Ads to Walmart Connect.

Conversion rates (CVR)

Conversion rates (CVR) measure how many people took this desired action out of the total number of website visitors. Discover average CVRs by industry here.

Conversions are easier explained than measured, as they involve multiple circular paths from impressions to clicks to action on different marketing channels. But a PPC reporting dashboard reduces the hassle of having to go into each marketing channel and manually looking at each metric to arrive at conversions data.

Return on Ad Spend (ROAS)

When you pit revenue against ad spend, you get return on ad spend. ROAS measures the amount of revenue you earn for every $1 you spend on advertising. Find out what is regarded as a good ROAS ratio here.

Keeping track of your return on investment can be overwhelming when you have multiple campaigns running across different channels. Delegate the task to a reliable marketing dashboard but opt for one that comes with push notifications so that you don’t have to check back every ten seconds for potential fluctuations.

How do I report Meta Ads? What metrics do I show?

What is cross-platform analytics?

Cross-platform analytics refers to the ability to measure and analyze the performance of marketing campaigns across multiple platforms. This can include channels like:

Ad accounts: e.g. Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads, etc.
E-commerce social platforms: e.g. Pinterest, Reddit
Programmatic platforms: e.g. Walmart Connect, The Trade Desk
Analytics tools: e.g. Google Analytics
Mobile analytics tools: e.g. AppsFlyer, Adjust
…and other sales and CRM tools

Check out our integration library to find out which platforms you can integrate to Adriel.

Cross-platform analytics helps agency owners and marketers identify areas where they need to make adjustments to optimize their ad spend. For instance, they can look at conversion and revenue figures and decide how to reallocate their budget across different marketing platforms.

What factors do we need to consider while making a digital dashboard?

To build an impactful cross-platform dashboard, you should consider:

The number of integrations

Most dashboard software in the market allows you to connect with anywhere from 60 to 600+ advertising and analytics platforms. The more connections, the better. Adriel supports integrations with 600+ channels and if there’s one that we don’t support natively, we can custom-make it for you.

Ease of use

It’s not just about the number of connections but also how easy it is to connect to these data sources.On Adriel, you can simply choose the platform you want to connect to from a drop-down list, and drag and drop widgets to start building your dashboards.

Real-time data

In a world where data is evolving every second, you need a dashboard that streams data as it comes in real-time so you can always see the latest campaign performance and take action in a timely manner.

Visualize ad creative data

Most dashboard software can show you all the main KPIs at a glance. But what if you want to dive deep into the details of your marketing campaigns? Adriel shows you granular data down to the ad level and allows you to report back on headlines, CTAs, and ad copies that led to higher conversion rates.

Alert system

Look for a dashboard software that alerts you whenever campaign metrics go above or below a certain KPI. With Adriel’s cross-channel alarm system, you can take advantage of opportunities and fix issues immediately.

White label reports

When it comes to client reporting, it’s very time-consuming to manually build complex dashboards in Google Data Studio or beautify your reports on PowerPoint. With Adriel, you can generate PDF reports with your brand visuals and client logos and colors within minutes.
