None of these systems will tell you if you are on track to hit your
marketing objectives
What is “Pacing”?
Track your pace.

How many of you are involved in tracking the performance of your
marketing efforts?
Running a marketing campaign is like running a marathon.
If you ignore your pace, you’ll often fail to achieve your
marketing performance goals.
What is “pacing” in running?
Suppose you wanted to finish a 26.2 mile marathon in 3 hours. Here’s a pacing plan that
will enable you to finish at exactly 3 hours:
Unlike marathon runners, most marketers fail to monitor their pace while their campaigns are
running.
Results sometimes fall short of plans
What is “pacing” in marketing? • Similar to pacing in running. • You set intermediate goals based on a campaign
goal and measure your performance at intervals. • Instead of just one goal of a finish time, you have
many goals such as spending, impressions, clicks, conversions, and sales.
• Instead of just one race, you have many placements running concurrently.
Example
• 30 day Placement on Website
• $ 20,000 Net Media Cost
• $ 2.35 CPM
• 1.8% Click Through Rate
• 4.5% Conversion Rate
• $ 9.50 Average Sale
Implied Goals • Impressions = (Net Media Cost ÷ $ 2.35 CPM ) ×
1000 = 8,510,638 • Clicks = Impressions × 1.8% Click Through Rate
= 153,191 • Conversions = Clicks × 4.5% Conversion Rate
= 6,894 • Sales = Conversions × $ 9.50 Average Sale
= $ 65,489
