Content return on investment is difficult to estimate when articles influence decisions over time and across channels. A last-click report can miss that contribution or over-credit the final touchpoint.
Record production and distribution costs and define the outcome being evaluated. Compare content exposure with qualified inquiry and customer behavior where the data supports it. State which parts of the estimate rely on attribution assumptions.
Use several forms of evidence rather than one precise-looking figure. Customer interviews and assisted conversion patterns can complement direct response data. Treat the estimate as a decision aid and revise it when better evidence becomes available.
