Marchex Launches Industry Benchmarking to Help Businesses Prioritize Key Performance Indicators
New capability provides businesses with real-time visibility into how they compare to their peers across key performance indicators.
Businesses have traditionally utilized Marchex for analyzing KPIs through historical trend analysis against internal metrics. With Industry Benchmarking, companies can now assess metrics such as conversation rate, lead rate, appointment set rate, and customer satisfaction KPIs in comparison to industry benchmarks, alongside receiving insights for performance improvement in areas such as sales, marketing, strategy, and operations. Marchex’s Industry Benchmarking allows businesses to evaluate their performance in relation to industry peers, using KPIs based on data from millions of consumer interactions. Without access to industry benchmarking, it can be challenging for businesses to determine their relative performance and whether performance changes align with industry trends.
“Performance at the company and location level is best considered within a broader context. Benchmarking reveals both strengths and areas for competitive improvement,” stated Troy Hartless, President and CRO at Marchex. “Our clients gain valuable insight into how their lead generation and conversion metrics compare to industry peers, enabling them to strategically focus on opportunities that drive revenue growth and relative performance improvements.”
Business leaders have faced significant challenges in benchmarking data, often depending on costly, time-intensive, and complex third-party research to evaluate their standing within the industry. Marchex’s benchmarking capabilities streamline this process, delivering standardized and accessible competitive insights.
Key benefits include:
- Real industry context, across mission-critical KPIs
- Visual indicators to quickly identify strong, average, or underperforming metrics
- Data-driven guidance to support leadership strategy, staffing, and budget allocation decisions
Benchmarks currently include industry-specific metrics such as:
- Conversation rate
- Lead rate
- Appointment rate
- Customer satisfaction (CSAT)
- Customer view of the business (VOB)
Industry Benchmarking is powered by Marchex’s robust foundation of conversation analytics data across high-volume B2C industries. As part of the Key Insights Dashboard, this milestone reflects another step in Marchex’s mission to transform customer conversation data into real-time, actionable intelligence that drives optimized business performance.
These new capabilities are available to eligible customers via an annual license.
