Board members have limited time and broad responsibilities. Create marketing reports that earn their attention by focusing on strategic impact, not tactical details.
What Boards Actually Want
Strategic positioning, market trends, competitive dynamics, and ROI on marketing investments. They want confidence that marketing drives business growth efficiently.
Essential Board Metrics
Customer acquisition cost (CAC), lifetime value (LTV), marketing-attributed revenue, brand awareness trends, and market share indicators. Limit to 5-7 key metrics.
Board Deck Best Practices
One page summary, then supporting detail. Visual trends over tables. Compare to benchmarks and prior periods. Always include "so what" and recommendations.
