Revenue per lead by channel helps compare sources with different cost and quality.
Example one: Paid search generates 120 leads and 36,000 in revenue. Revenue per lead is 300.
Example two: Paid social generates 400 leads and 48,000 in revenue. Revenue per lead is 120. It produced more leads and more total revenue, but each lead was worth less on average.
Example three: A webinar generates 80 leads and 32,000 in revenue, so revenue per lead is 400. If CPL is also high, the campaign still needs ROI checking.
