Importance of Setting Clear Goals and Metrics

When running a marketing campaign, it is crucial to understand the specific goals and metrics you want to achieve. Simply wanting more sales is not enough. You need to define clear objectives, determine the metrics you will measure, set targets, and establish milestones.
