metrics and KPIs example 108

KPI: An achievement of a 25% increase in users year over year is an example of a KPI. Let’s say that a significant business objective was to increase revenue by a certain amount within a financial year. A 25% increase in users indicates that more paid users have
adopted or joined the platform, signaling that the organization is closer to achieving this objective.
