Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are essential metrics for any company. For startups – particularly those that are backed by private capital – KPIs are not only necessary for setting a path to manageable growth, but they also are critical indicators for investors.
KPIs can include metrics like revenue growth, profit margins, customer acquisition costs, and return on investment (ROI). Individually and collectively, they provide a snapshot of a company's overall health and performance. Investors use these metrics to gauge a company's performance and potential for future growth. Strong KPIs attract investors by demonstrating that the company is financially sound and has a good chance of providing a profitable return. Conversely, weak KPIs might signal potential risks, making investors cautious.
