Proving influencer ROI to skeptical leadership — what to measure and how: Trackable metrics (hard numbers): discount code usage (direct revenue attribution), UTM link clicks and conversions in GA4, new customer acquisition from tracked orders. Leading indicators (for longer-cycle products): branded search volume lift (Google Search Console), Instagram follower growth rate during campaign period, website direct traffic lift. Report format that wins internal approval: show cost per tracked acquisition vs Google/Meta CPA. Even if influencer CPA is higher, show the content value — a creator Reel you can boost for 6 months has ongoing ROI. Quick wins: start with a campaign that has a trackable conversion (discount code, free trial link) before pitching awareness campaigns. First data point needs to be hard.
