- INTRODUCTION:
Your industrial company is built on afoundation of expertise, precision, and results.
You’ve crafted high-quality products and services, assembled a dedicated sales team, and cultivated a reputation for excellence within your industry.
But in today’s digital world, success requires more than just a handshake and a brochure. To reach new customers, boost your sales pipeline, and scale your business to the next level, you need a powerful online presence.
You need a website that works as hard as you do.
The problem? Many industrial companies struggle to make digital marketing work for their complex businesses. Their websites are often outdated, underperforming, and fail to capture the attention of their ideal buyers. They’re stuck in a cycle of frustration, wasting time and money on tactics that don’t deliver the results they need.

Signs Your Industrial Website Needs a Redesign
You might think your website is doing a decent job, but is it truly reflecting your company’s capabilities and attracting the right kind of attention?
Here are some red flags 
that your industrial website needs a redesign:
Is your website traffic flatlining or even decreasing? Are visitors bouncing quickly? Are your contact forms gathering dust? These are clear signs that your website isn’t engaging your target audience effectively.
Does your website look like it’s from the 90s? Is it slow to load? Is it difficult to navigate on mobile devices? Does it reflect your current brand and messaging? If you’re embarrassed to send prospects to your website, it’s time for an upgrade.
Your website should be a strategic tool for achieving your business goals. Is it generating leads for your sales team? Is it helping you build brand awareness and credibility? Is it supporting your overall marketing strategy? If not, a redesign can help you get back on track.
Which Leading Digital Marketing Indicators to Watch
We’ve identified five leading indicators that allow you to gauge your digital marketing performance and that will serve as separate bellwethers to tell your overall ROI tale:
Each channel’s efficacy can be measured along the way—you don’t have to wait and see what the channel’s ultimate ROI says. For example, are your organic search numbers increasing? Are your paid advertising efforts delivering new leads?
These numbers tell you a variety of things. You’ll know which webpages your visitors are staying on, and which ones they aren’t. This informs you how effective your content is. Obviously, if your landing page has a high bounce rate, it needs testing to improve your campaign’s performance. You can also dig deeper to uncover traffic quality from referral sites, as well as advertising efforts.
This will tell you if you’re attracting the right audience and if your content offers are engaging enough. Site visits are always the goal, but the number that really matters is how many of those visitors become solid leads
After identifying visitor-to-lead conversions, you can start determining how many of those leads are sales-qualified. Knowing the lead quality of your digital marketing channels allows you to utilize time and money effectively, all while filling up your pipeline.
Since we’ve discussed tracking how many visitors become leads, this final leading indicator shouldn’t come as a surprise. It’s critical to evaluate how well leads are moving through your system and becoming loyal customers.
We understand that even as we explain these indicators and concepts, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. You’re probably asking yourself “Who has the time to measure all of this?” Well, that’s what automation is for

Technically, There’s More Than One ROIto Measure
Now that you have more insight regarding what goes into measuring digital marketing ROI, it’s time to break it down a little further. While you have an overarching digital marketing ROI to concern yourself with, it’s important to segment it into two separate measurements
Why dig into these ROI layers? For one, it gives you an understanding of the math that leads to the overall ROI. But more importantly, it also gives good marketers exactly what they need: valuable intelligence. If you know what campaigns work best on which channels, then that will most certainly play into your digital marketing strategy going forward.
Channel ROI:
A sound digital marketing strategy will focus on each individual channel. Whether it’s social, email, organic search, or pay-per-click (PPC), you need to be measuring each one individually.
Campaign ROI:
This takes us even further down the ROI rabbit hole. If you’re going to measure independent channels, then it only makes sense to measure the independent campaigns you launch on those channels.
