    The three tools for tracking:

    Use this spreadsheet to help you record your numbers. 

    (Some of these are affiliate links and I earn a commission when you sign up. I only recommend partners I have vetted and tools I personally use.)

     

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    What should you be tracking?

    Email:

    • Number of subscribers
    • Open rates
    • Click rates
    • Advanced: how many buyers you get from an email

    Tool for this is your email newsletter program.


    Social media:

    • Engagement
    • Clicks

    Tool for this is the Insights/Analytics on the different social media tools

     

    For your course:

    • Number of visitors to your sales page
    • How many sales you make

    Tool is hopefully your course hosting software. 

     

    Affiliate program:

    • Clicks from your affiliates
    • Sales from your affiliates
    • Payments needed and payments made

    Tool is whatever program you are using to manage your affiliate program. 

     

    Podcast:

    • Downloads an episode gets
    • Unique listeners
    • Downloads per episode

    My software hosting tool – Simplecast – tracks all this for me. 

     

    Links:

    • How many clicks a link gets
    • What actions are taken


    This is a big project to set this all up so just start with a small piece and get going with one of the link tracking tools. It will evolve and build over time.
