What KPIs do you track?
Direct answer
KPIs are selected for each engagement based on the objectives, stage, strategy, and Investor Acquisition Infrastructure being deployed. These may include traditional marketing KPIs, sales performance indicators, investor engagement data, pipeline progression, conversion to qualified investor relationships, Investor Acquisition Cost, Investor Confidence indicators, and Capital Efficiency measures.
Expanded explanation
AIAS does not dismiss traditional marketing KPIs as vanity metrics. Cost per click, cost per lead, landing page conversion rates, email engagement, appointment rates, content performance, and campaign activity all provide useful data. These metrics help the marketing team understand what is working, what needs refinement, where friction exists, and how campaigns can be improved.
The distinction is that traditional marketing KPIs are most useful for diagnosing and optimizing marketing activity. They help the marketing team make informed decisions.
AIAS proprietary metrics are designed to help fund managers, sponsors, syndicators, capital raisers, and investor relations teams measure what matters most to capital formation: investor relationship quality, Investor Confidence, Trust Capital, Relationship Capital, investor readiness, pipeline progression, Cost of Acquiring Capital, Investor Lifetime Value, referral potential, advocacy, and Capital Efficiency.
In other words, marketing KPIs help optimize the activity inside the system. AIAS metrics help evaluate whether the system is improving the quality, cost, durability, and efficiency of acquiring investor relationships and capital.
