What Black Friday metrics should I track?

What Black Friday Metrics Should I Track?

Most stores track too many metrics and get overwhelmed, or too few and miss critical signals. Six core metrics give you a complete picture of Black Friday health - from acquisition to conversion to long-term customer quality.

Event Metrics (during BF)

  • Conversion rate - By traffic source, hourly
  • AOV - vs. baseline, vs. prior year BF
  • Revenue per session - Best single efficiency metric
  • ROAS by channel - Where to invest next year

Post-Event Metrics (30-90 days)

  • New customer rate - % of first-time buyers
  • 30-day repeat purchase - Retention quality check
  • 90-day LTV - True long-term ROI indicator
  • Net margin % - Revenue means nothing without this
