Expect first, then measure what the buyer did

Write down what you expect before a piece goes out, one sentence and a rough band. Two weeks later, read what the buyer did against it: a tracked click, a form, a booked call, someone saying they saw it. Views tell you a piece travelled, not where.

Write the card before the piece goes out.

Expectation card

This piece should earn several replies from buyers, because the opening line names the buyer's problem.
