What KPIs Should Advocacy Report into RMOS Dashboards?

Connect customer advocacy to revenue by tracking references, reviews, stories, communities, and referrals inside your Revenue Marketing Operating System (RMOS)—so ABX, Sales, and CS see impact at a glance.

Revenue Marketing Dashboard Benchmark with the Revenue Marketing Index

Advocacy should report into RMOS with a revenue-first lens: pipeline and revenue influenced by references and stories; win-rate lift when a reference is used; cycle time reduction tied to social proof; NRR/GRR improvements from advocates; and the unit economics of incentives (cost per reference/review vs. revenue impact). Layer these with buying stage and account hierarchy to show how proof accelerates opportunities and expansions.

Advocacy KPIs to Feed RMOS

Reference-Assisted Win Rate — Opportunities with a reference vs. without; by segment, product, and region.
Cycle Time Delta — Median days saved when case studies, reviews, or references are used in-stage.
Advocacy-Influenced Pipeline & Revenue — $ where reference, review, referral, or story engagement occurred pre-close.
NRR/Expansion Lift — Renewal rate and expansion ARPU for advocate accounts vs. cohort controls.
Advocate Health — Count and freshness of active advocates, coverage by industry/geo, and burnout risk (requests per advocate).
Incentive ROI — Cost per qualified reference/review vs. closed-won and lifetime value created.

RMOS Advocacy Reporting Playbook

Instrument advocacy once, surface impact everywhere: ABX, Sales, CS, and the revenue council.

Catalog → Tag → Trigger → Attribute → Visualize → Govern

  • Catalog proof assets: Centralize references, case studies, reviews, and speakers with rights, regions, and industries.
  • Tag by stage & role: Map each asset to buyer stage (awareness→commit) and persona (economic, technical, user).
  • Trigger usage: Insert proof into ABX plays; log reference calls, review clicks, and story views back to CRM.
  • Attribute revenue: Connect proof-touch to opp IDs and renewals; measure win-rate lift and time-to-close deltas.
  • Visualize in RMOS: Dashboard tiles for reference-assisted pipeline, cycle time saved, NRR lift, and incentive ROI.
  • Govern & optimize: Monthly review of coverage gaps, burnout risk, and top-performing assets; refresh or retire.

Frequently Asked Questions: Advocacy KPIs for RMOS

Which advocacy KPIs are “executive ready”?
Reference-assisted win rate, advocacy-influenced revenue, cycle time delta, NRR lift, and incentive ROI—rolled up by segment/region with trend lines.
How do we avoid double-counting influence?
Use a governed attribution model and unique proof-touch events; show primary vs. assist roles and rely on cohort/holdout validation.
What belongs on team-level tiles?
Active advocates, coverage gaps, requests filled, proof utilization by stage, and burnout risk—plus qualitative “story freshness.”
How should incentives be tracked?
Maintain an incentive ledger tied to specific outcomes (qualified reference, approved story, published review) and report cost per outcome vs. revenue impact.
What about community metrics?
Show membership growth, contribution rate, product adoption correlation, and expansions from community-sourced use cases.

Customize Your RMOS Advocacy Dashboard
