What is an inbound marketing report?

An inbound marketing report is a document that consolidates data from multiple sources (e.g., HubSpot, Google Analytics, social media platforms) to track and display key performance indicators (KPIs) (e.g., lead generation, conversion rates, website traffic), enabling teams and agencies to monitor inbound marketing efforts and create presentations for clients and executives. 

Inbound marketing reports are typically created using flexible tools like Google Looker Studio, Power BI, Google Sheets, or platform-specific solutions to enable high customization and integration of multiple data sources.

What to include in an inbound marketing report?

An actionable inbound marketing report balances context and specificity based on the audience (executives, managers, and analysts) and their use cases.

Executive inbound marketing reports

Executive reports for CMOs, CEOs, and clients show inbound marketing's bottom-line impact. Reviewed weekly, monthly, or quarterly, they include:

  • Inbound ROI analysis: by channel, using attribution models for large budgets (≈100k/mo).
  • Lead funnel analysis: lead generation, conversion rates, and customer acquisition costs
  • Cohort analysis: retention, expansion, and LTV by customer cohort (sign-up period, acquisition channel)
  • Add text for additional context to translate metrics for non-technical audiences. Present in slide decks and simplified Looker Studio reports.

Inbound marketing manager reports

Manager reports have cross-channel views with drill-downs to see performance by client, brand, region, team member, funnel stage, and campaign. They help align teams, define tactics, and include:

  • Cross-channel reporting: overall campaign, product, client, or region reporting across channels
  • Goal tracking: compare current performance vs objectives
  • Content performance analysis: blog posts, landing pages, and social media content
  • SEO analysis for keyword and content strategy
  • Topic, keyword, content, audience research

Operational Inbound Marketing Reports

Operational reports for analysts and channel managers have granular, customizable KPIs to solve technical issues. Monitored hourly, daily, or weekly, they cover:

  • Content marketing: blog traffic, engagement, lead generation
  • Social media: post metrics, follower growth, engaging topics/hashtags
  • Email marketing: delivery, open, conversion rates
  • SEO: keyword/page rankings, impressions, clicks, speed, errors, backlinks

Operational inbound marketing reports are highly customized, built in flexible tools like Google Sheets or Looker Studio to enable data cleaning, blending, annotations, and integrating multiple sources.
