Can I track ROI on influencer discount campaigns?

I'm struggling to understand how to effectively measure the return on investment (ROI) for influencer marketing campaigns that involve discount codes. While I'm investing significant resources in partnering with influencers, I can't seem to get a clear picture of whether these campaigns are actually generating profitable results. I need a systematic approach to tracking performance, understanding conversion rates, and determining the true financial impact of these promotional partnerships across different social media platforms and audience segments.
