Metrics without metric theatre
Different signals answer different campaign questions.
A number becomes useful only when its meaning, limits and relationship to the business objective are understood. No invented dashboard is needed to explain that distinction.
Visibility signalsWas the advertising shown?
Impressions can describe exposure in eligible advertising contexts. They do not show that a person understood the message or completed a useful action.
Interaction signalsDid someone interact?
Clicks can show interaction with an ad, but a click alone cannot establish commercial value or explain what happened on the destination page.
Efficiency signalsHow was spend used?
Cost-related measures need context. The cheapest click is not automatically the most relevant, and a lower cost does not guarantee a better business outcome.
Business-action signalsDid a defined meaningful action occur?
A conversion should represent an action that matters to the actual objective, using suitable measurement where it is available and properly configured.
Examples only:
Enquiry submission
Telephone call
Purchase
Booking
Another defined action
Not every business uses every action, and Donvic does not claim that every engagement automatically includes GA4, Google Tag Manager, server-side tracking or every possible measurement implementation.
