Start with the decision the experiment should support. A primary metric gives the test a defined outcome and reduces the temptation to choose whichever result looks best afterward.
Use a metric close enough to the business goal to be meaningful. If a local click improves but qualified inquiries fall, the downstream impact should remain visible.
Document the denominator, conversion event, observation window, and guardrails. Check that tracking is reliable before using the measure to evaluate a variation.
