Understanding Marketing Originated Customers

This metric measures the percentage of new customers that were influenced or directly acquired through marketing activities. A higher percentage indicates that your marketing efforts are effective in driving customer acquisition. A lower rate may signal that other factors (e.g., organic or referral traffic) play a larger role in your customer acquisition strategy.
