To gauge the success of your gym ad campaigns, tracking the right metrics is essential. Here’s a list of key performance indicators (KPIs) you should monitor for your gym’s advertising efforts, especially if you're using 7Search PPC and other digital marketing channels:

Click-Through Rate (CTR)

• What It Is: The percentage of people who click on your ad after seeing it.
• Why It Matters: A high CTR indicates that your ad resonates with your target audience and that your message and creatives are compelling.
• How to Track: Monitor this through your 7Search PPC dashboard or any other platform you're using for PPC ads.

Conversion Rate

• What It Is: The percentage of users who take a desired action, such as signing up for a free trial, booking a consultation, or becoming a member after clicking on your ad.
• Why It Matters: This metric shows how effective your landing page, offer, and ad targeting are in converting leads into paying customers.
• How to Track: Track conversions with Google Analytics, through the 7Search PPC platform, or any integrated CRM.

Cost Per Acquisition (CPA)

• What It Is: The total cost of acquiring a new member, calculated by dividing the total ad spend by the number of new members gained.
• Why It Matters: It helps you understand the financial efficiency of your campaigns. Lower CPA means you’re spending wisely on acquiring customers.
• How to Track: Use the 7Search PPC platform’s reporting tools to monitor ad spend and the number of sign-ups resulting from your campaigns.

Return on Ad Spend (ROAS)

• What It Is: The revenue you earn for every dollar spent on advertising.
• Why It Matters: This metric shows how well your ad spend translates into actual revenue. A high ROAS means your ads are generating more value than they cost.
• How to Track: Track revenue through your gym’s membership system and compare it against ad spend data from 7Search PPC or other platforms.

Impressions

• What It Is: The number of times your ad is shown to users, whether they click on it or not.
• Why It Matters: A high number of impressions indicates that your ads are reaching a large audience. However, ensure that impressions are followed by clicks for better results.
• How to Track: View impressions directly within 7Search PPC and other PPC ad tools.
