In the Data Studio, you can now set your own targets and track real-time progress to see how you're performing in achieving those targets. Watch the video and or follow the instructions from the screenshots to find out how you can set up targets!

How do I set up and provide my targets to Admetrics?

You have the flexibility to decide which metrics you’d like to set targets for.

  1. Simply go to the Settings under Integrations.

  2. When selecting a data integration, choose "Google Sheet: Targets."

  3. Assign a title to the sheet and click “Save”.

Now, define your targets. Once you’re satisfied with the numbers, follow the instructions and share the file with Admetrics via the email address provided. We will handle the rest and import your targets into the Data Studio.

Which metrics require a target?

You decide which metrics need a target. You can also specify the time frame and optionally split targets by marketing channel. In this way, you can set targets for 15 basic metrics:

Marketing spend

Reactivated customers

Return rate %

Revenue

Reactivation rate %

CM1 %

Net revenue

Visits

CM2 %

New customers

Orders

CM3 %

New customer rate %

Discount rate %

EBITDA %

Once the data is uploaded, we’ll also calculate targets for derived metrics such as:

CM1

ROAS

CPV

CM2

New Customer ROAS

CVR %

CM3

aROAS

AOV

EBITDA

POAS

AOP

CAC

New Customer POAS

MER %

CPO

aPOAS

aMER %

Where can I see my targets and the actual performance in Data Studio?

You can easily view all target metrics and comparisons in the Performance View of the Data Studio, just as you do with other metrics. Targets are labeled with the prefix “Target,” for example, "Target: Marketing Spend", and comparisons will be labeled like "Marketing Spend vs. Target."

Targets also appear in the Dashboards as individual line charts, allowing you to compare actual values to the set targets. When a target is reached, it will appear in green with a cup symbol.

Note: Absolute targets (such as counts of visits, orders, or currency metrics like marketing spend or revenue) are displayed at the global and channel level. For further filtering, only relative targets (e.g., CPO, NCR) are shown.
