# Performance Report

> If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see [CONNECTORS.md](../../CONNECTORS.md).

Generate a marketing performance report with key metrics, trend analysis, insights, and optimization recommendations.

## Trigger

User runs `/performance-report` or asks for a marketing report, performance analysis, campaign results, or metrics summary.

## Inputs

1. **Report type** — determine which type of report the user needs:
   - **Campaign report** — performance of a specific campaign
   - **Channel report** — performance across a specific channel (email, social, paid, SEO, etc.)
   - **Content performance** — how content pieces are performing
   - **Overall marketing report** — cross-channel summary (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
   - **Custom** — user-defined scope

2. **Time period** — the reporting window (last week, last month, last quarter, custom date range)

3. **Data source**:
   - If ~~marketing analytics is connected, discover what accounts and platforms are available, then pull performance data automatically
   - If ~~product analytics is connected: pull performance data automatically
   - If not connected: ask the user to provide metrics. Prompt with: "Please paste or share your performance data. I can work with spreadsheets, CSV data, dashboard screenshots described in text, or just the key numbers."

4. **Comparison period** (optional) — prior period or year-over-year for trend context

5. **Stakeholder audience** (optional) — who will read this report (executive summary style vs. detailed analyst view)

### Dashboard Design Principles
- Lead with the metrics that map to business objectives (not vanity metrics)
- Show trends over time, not just point-in-time snapshots
- Include comparison context: prior period, target, benchmark
- Use consistent color coding: green (on track), yellow (at risk), red (off track)
- Group metrics by funnel stage or business question
- Keep dashboards to one page/screen — detail goes in appendix
- Update cadence should match decision cadence (real-time for paid, weekly for content)

## Trend Analysis and Forecasting

### Trend Identification
When analyzing performance data, look for:

1. **Directional trends**: is the metric consistently going up, down, or flat over 4+ periods?
2. **Inflection points**: where did performance change direction and what happened then?
3. **Seasonality**: are there predictable patterns by day of week, month, or quarter?
4. **Anomalies**: one-time spikes or drops — what caused them and are they repeatable?
5. **Leading indicators**: which metrics change first and predict future outcomes?

### Trend Analysis Process
1. Chart the metric over time (at least 8-12 data points for meaningful trends)
2. Identify the overall direction (upward, downward, flat, cyclical)
3. Calculate the rate of change (is it accelerating or decelerating?)
4. Overlay key events (campaigns launched, product changes, market events)
5. Compare to benchmarks or targets
6. Identify correlations with other metrics
7. Form hypotheses about causation (and plan tests to validate)

### Simple Forecasting Approaches
- **Linear projection**: extend the current trend line forward (useful for stable metrics)
- **Moving average**: smooth out noise by averaging the last 3-6 periods
- **Year-over-year comparison**: use last year's pattern as a baseline, adjusted for growth rate
- **Funnel math**: forecast outputs from inputs (e.g., if we generate X leads at Y conversion rate, we will get Z customers)
- **Scenario modeling**: create best case, expected case, and worst case projections

### Forecasting Caveats
- Short-term forecasts (1-3 months) are more reliable than long-term
- Forecasts based on fewer than 12 data points should be flagged as low confidence
- External factors (market shifts, competitive moves, economic changes) can invalidate trend-based forecasts
- Always present forecasts as ranges, not exact numbers

## Attribution Modeling Basics

### What Is Attribution?
Attribution determines which marketing touchpoints get credit for a conversion. This matters because buyers typically interact with multiple channels before converting.

### Common Attribution Models

| Model | How It Works | Best For | Limitation |
|-------|-------------|----------|------------|
| Last touch | 100% credit to last interaction before conversion | Understanding final conversion triggers | Ignores awareness and nurture |
| First touch | 100% credit to first interaction | Understanding top-of-funnel effectiveness | Ignores nurture and conversion drivers |
| Linear | Equal credit to all touchpoints | Fair representation of all channels | Does not reflect relative impact |
| Time decay | More credit to touchpoints closer to conversion | Balanced view favoring recent interactions | May undervalue awareness |
| Position-based (U-shaped) | 40% first, 40% last, 20% split among middle | Valuing both discovery and conversion | Somewhat arbitrary weighting |
| Data-driven | Algorithmic credit based on conversion patterns | Most accurate representation | Requires significant data volume |

### Attribution Practical Guidance
- Start with last-touch attribution if you have no model in place — it is the simplest and most actionable
- Compare first-touch and last-touch to understand which channels drive awareness vs. conversion
- Use position-based (U-shaped) as a reasonable middle ground for most B2B companies
- Data-driven attribution requires high conversion volume to be statistically meaningful
- No model is perfect — use attribution directionally, not as absolute truth
- Multi-touch attribution is better than single-touch, but any model is better than none

### Attribution Pitfalls
- Do not optimize one channel in isolation based on single-touch attribution
- Awareness channels (display, social, PR) will always look bad in last-touch models
- Conversion channels (search, retargeting) will always look bad in first-touch models
- Self-reported attribution ("how did you hear about us?") provides useful qualitative color but is unreliable as quantitative data
- Cross-device and cross-channel tracking gaps mean attribution data is always incomplete

## Optimization Recommendations Framework

### Optimization Process
1. **Identify**: which metrics are underperforming vs. target or benchmark?
2. **Diagnose**: where in the funnel is the problem? (impressions, clicks, conversions, retention)
3. **Hypothesize**: what is causing the underperformance? (audience, message, creative, offer, timing, technical)
4. **Prioritize**: which fixes will have the biggest impact with the least effort?
5. **Test**: design an experiment to validate the hypothesis
6. **Measure**: did the change improve the metric?
7. **Scale or iterate**: roll out wins broadly; iterate on inconclusive or failed tests

### Optimization Levers by Funnel Stage

| Funnel Stage | Problem Signal | Optimization Levers |
|-------------|---------------|---------------------|
| Awareness | Low impressions, low reach | Budget, targeting, channel mix, creative format |
| Interest | Low CTR, low engagement | Ad creative, headlines, content hooks, audience targeting |
| Consideration | High bounce rate, low time on page | Landing page content, page speed, content relevance, UX |
| Conversion | Low conversion rate | Offer, CTA, form length, trust signals, page layout |
| Retention | High churn, low repeat engagement | Onboarding, email nurture, product experience, support |

### Testing Best Practices
- Test one variable at a time for clean results
- Define the success metric before launching the test
- Calculate required sample size before starting (do not end tests early)
- Run tests for a minimum of one full business cycle (typically one week for B2B)
- Document all tests and results, regardless of outcome
- Share learnings across the team — failed tests are valuable information
- A test that confirms the status quo is not a failure — it builds confidence in your current approach

### Continuous Optimization Cadence
- **Daily**: monitor paid campaigns for budget pacing, anomalies, and disapproved ads
- **Weekly**: review channel performance, pause underperformers, scale winners
- **Bi-weekly**: refresh ad creative and test new variants
- **Monthly**: full performance review, identify new optimization opportunities, update forecasts
- **Quarterly**: strategic review of channel mix, budget allocation, and targeting strategy

## Output Formatting

- Use tables for data presentation
- Bold key numbers and trends
- Keep the executive summary concise (suitable for forwarding to leadership)
- Include a "detailed appendix" section for granular data if the user provided a lot of metrics

## After the Report

Ask: "Would you like me to:
- Create a slide-ready summary of these results?
- Draft a stakeholder email with the key takeaways?
- Dive deeper into any specific metric or channel?
- Set up a reporting template you can reuse next period?"
