Mastering Key Business Metrics to Boost Revenue

Joshua: 00:00:11

I've never heard a business say, I don't want any more money.

2

: 00:00:13

the higher, this is the bigger, this,

the more money you're going to get.

3

: 00:00:16

So how do we get that or those

eggs, a lot bigger or more often?

4

: 00:00:23

we take a look at the chicken.

5

: 00:00:29

Hey, how's it going everyone?

6

: 00:00:30

This is Josh with

another Google ads video.

7

: 00:00:33

And today we're gonna be

talking about a chicken.

8

: 00:00:35

But not just any chicken, this chicken

is very business and puts his business

9

: 00:00:39

head on and gets to work at trying

to make as much money as possible.

10

: 00:00:43

But with all jokes aside, this is

a, metaphor, for business metrics.

11

: 00:00:48

You have your blended numbers slash

backend for the chicken itself.

12

: 00:00:52

Then you have the in app numbers, which

could be meta Amazon or Google ads

13

: 00:00:56

platform, what you see inside there.

14

: 00:00:59

That's the in app numbers here.

15

: 00:01:01

Then you have the golden standard

of revenue, that golden egg.

16

: 00:01:05

I've never had a farmer say,

Hey, I got too many eggs, or

17

: 00:01:07

I got, too many large eggs.

18

: 00:01:09

I've never heard a business say,

I don't want any more money.

19

: 00:01:12

the higher this is, the bigger this

the more money you're gonna get.

20

: 00:01:15

So how do we get that or those eggs?

21

: 00:01:19

a lot bigger or more often.

22

: 00:01:21

we take a look at the chicken.

23

: 00:01:23

And basically how business started

out is you start feeding the chicken.

24

: 00:01:26

New customers goes into new

orders, goes in, new cost required.

25

: 00:01:30

New customer goes in a

burr, AOV, total orders.

26

: 00:01:33

Then you start getting into kind of

repeat customer rates, open email

27

: 00:01:37

rate, customer lists, and LTV.

28

: 00:01:40

these are all interconnected

to each other.

29

: 00:01:41

They all share the same blood of,

All the stuff that's digested kind

30

: 00:01:45

of spreads across the chicken.

31

: 00:01:47

And if you take one of these

away, let's say opening, right?

32

: 00:01:49

You don't know what's going on there.

33

: 00:01:51

maybe it's really poor and you can be

missing out on making this egg slightly

34

: 00:01:54

bigger than, it could have been.

35

: 00:01:56

And same goes with me or

nac, we take away nac.

36

: 00:02:00

Then how much are you spinning

on a new client to come in

37

: 00:02:03

or a new customer to come in?

38

: 00:02:05

Which could affect

overall numbers as well.

39

: 00:02:07

It starts to dwin it down

into all these other areas.

40

: 00:02:09

'cause it could be the heart

line or the heart of the chicken.

41

: 00:02:13

And if it's not pumping out, enough

blood to all these other horses.

42

: 00:02:16

I could start taking a dive, that's

how the revenue or the golden standard

43

: 00:02:20

works is the health of the chicken.

44

: 00:02:22

Let's take these in app numbers.

45

: 00:02:24

And I consider these like

the droppings of, numbers.

46

: 00:02:28

Like you have CPA clicks,

CPC rows, conversion rate.

47

: 00:02:32

So it's not saying that

these numbers are bad.

48

: 00:02:36

you could definitely use these

numbers for trends and saying, okay,

49

: 00:02:38

like our rows dropped by a lot.

50

: 00:02:39

What happened there?

51

: 00:02:40

did we make any changes?

52

: 00:02:42

but we want to make sure that we're

not using these as a standard for

53

: 00:02:45

any one platform in particular.

54

: 00:02:47

let's take, for instance,

let's do some tests here.

55

: 00:02:49

We have Meta Amazon Google and

think of these as food sources

56

: 00:02:54

for this chicken right here.

57

: 00:02:56

let's say we want to scale up Meta,

it's getting really good ROAS.

58

: 00:03:00

So let's throw ROAS on there.

59

: 00:03:01

this is the formula for basically

ROAS, we scaled it up and

60

: 00:03:06

we got some unknowns there.

61

: 00:03:07

we know that we are getting some new

customers, but if we just take a look at

62

: 00:03:10

ROAS, it could be a lot of remarketing.

63

: 00:03:12

It could be a lot of repeat customers

that's scooping up and we're feeding

64

: 00:03:16

that chicken that type of, mix.

65

: 00:03:19

are we looking at the backend?

66

: 00:03:20

Are we taking a look at new

orders or new costs required?

67

: 00:03:23

Customer, might drop, if we're

just looking at ROAS because

68

: 00:03:26

it's so heavily in marketing and

then LTV might jump up slightly.

69

: 00:03:30

but in the long run, if this is not

being fed, then it's going to start

70

: 00:03:33

going and messing with everything else.

71

: 00:03:36

And then your revenue is going to

start dying off, and the eggs are

72

: 00:03:38

going to get smaller and smaller.

73

: 00:03:40

we don't want to do that, but the

good thing about that is we did an

74

: 00:03:44

isolated test with that just now.

75

: 00:03:46

We know that if we scaled up meta,

So let's say, okay, we know that,

76

: 00:03:51

maybe Google ads pushing a lot

of cold traffic, cause we have

77

: 00:03:54

a lot of good terms in there.

78

: 00:03:55

We're using some shopping campaign

and whatnot to just push cold

79

: 00:04:00

alone, but it doesn't look like it's

getting a lot of roads, but we want

80

: 00:04:03

to go ahead and test and see if we

scale it up or if we make a change.

81

: 00:04:06

what will it affect the chicken versus

just looking at these, droppings here

82

: 00:04:10

and saying, that's it, that's, that

CPA, that row is decreased by a lot.

83

: 00:04:14

We don't want to do that.

84

: 00:04:16

We want to feed the chicken, let

it go through its process and say,

85

: 00:04:19

okay, is INCAC up, the new orders

come in, is the MRR stabilized?

86

: 00:04:25

and then you can start looking at LTV.

87

: 00:04:26

Sometimes how did that

change when we did this?

88

: 00:04:29

more of an isolated test of that.

89

: 00:04:32

But if we start going and saying,

okay, we're going to increase

90

: 00:04:35

Google ads at the same time, we're

going to throw an Amazon ads.

91

: 00:04:38

We're going to chop that.

92

: 00:04:39

And then we're going to

increase, meta ads as well.

93

: 00:04:42

now you have all of this type of

food source going into the chicken.

94

: 00:04:47

And all these numbers start changing.

95

: 00:04:50

if revenue goes up, okay.

96

: 00:04:51

what actually affected the chicken?

97

: 00:04:53

Was it the Amazon blend?

98

: 00:04:55

was it Google then was it both of them

or if it dropped, what made it worse?

99

: 00:04:59

Was it Meta?

100

: 00:05:00

Was it Google?

101

: 00:05:02

So you really want to focus on

isolated tasks and not just throw in

102

: 00:05:06

a bunch of things because we can make

changes and say, Hey, maybe we're

103

: 00:05:09

impressed on a certain type of outcome.

104

: 00:05:11

We need this right away.

105

: 00:05:13

it's more of the long game of saying,

Hey, we need to really make sure that

106

: 00:05:16

these that chicken's being fed properly.

107

: 00:05:19

And saying, okay, that revenue is coming

out, solid gold versus like this murky

108

: 00:05:24

stuff right here where it says, okay,

click CPA, CPC went down or up, versus

109

: 00:05:30

what's actually going on in the back end.

110

: 00:05:31

So that's my little spiel, on the chicken

strategy, but, I'll probably start diving

111

: 00:05:36

into these a little bit more in depth.

112

: 00:05:38

I know this is like a general video

of kind of how things are set up.

113

: 00:05:42

And the, process of making sure

that we do isolated tests to make

114

: 00:05:47

sure that these numbers are nice and

healthy to get that revenue going.

115

: 00:05:51

so that, yeah, that's what I got.

116

: 00:05:55

Have a good one.
