1. Lead Generation:
Definition:

Measurement:
Divide the number of users who took the desired action by the total number of leads, then multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

If retention is high, consider upselling or cross-selling additional services.
If it's low, gather feedback to understand customer pain points and address them.
