Metrics That Actually Matter (And Ones That Can Duck Right Off)
🦆 SPONSORED BY HUBSPOT
Even ducks need a good CRM. Track your metrics without drowning in data.

"If you're tracking 47 different KPIs, you're not measuring success – you're just feeding your analytics addiction. A duck only needs to know if it's floating or sinking."
Weird Duck Stats
73% of marketers track more than 10 metrics daily, but like ducks with breadcrumbs, they only actually use about 3 of them. The rest is just digital hoarding.
The Weekly WADDLE Poll 🦆
Your boss wants daily metrics reports. You'd rather:
- 🦆 "Show them our revenue growth instead"
- 📊 "Create a 47-page dashboard that crashes Excel"
- 🤖 "Let AI generate random numbers that only go up"
- 🏃♂️ "Migrate all data to a platform that 'accidentally' loses everything"
The Big Splash: Metrics That Actually Matter
Look, my fellow waterfowl, we need to talk about our toxic relationship with metrics. We're drowning in data but dying of thirst for actual insights.
What's Actually Worth Tracking:
1. Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC)
- Because knowing how much bread you're spending to feed each new duck matters
- HubSpot Tip: Use their campaign ROI calculator to track this automatically
2. Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)
- Like measuring how many times a loyal duck returns to your pond
- Focus on growing this number, not your Twitter followers
Anti-Hustle Framework:
- Check metrics weekly, not hourly (your sanity matters)
- Set up automated reports (like a smart duck using the current)
- Focus on trends, not daily fluctuations (the pond always ripples)
Keep it floating,
