Reporting that leadership can act on — not dashboards that look busy
Attribution arguments usually collapse into perfect models nobody maintains or last-click charts that lie politely. The sustainable path is operational: definitions, handoffs, and a cadence you can keep.
If leadership cannot answer which channels create qualified pipeline, the reporting stack is still a hobby.
The middle path is operational: agree on the definition of a qualified lead, instrument the handoffs, and reconcile marketing-sourced pipeline with revenue on a cadence the team can maintain.
Engagement shape matters too — diagnostics, scoped projects, and fractional ownership change what you measure and when. Pick the shape that matches the bottleneck, then align the scoreboard to it.
