Read this article very carefully and it is helpful. Connecting "soft conversions" to math is a good idea. Every action is related to the math of your P&L. Every action has costs associated with it and every action has benefits. This article from SEOTakeAways is a good step by step approach to connecting soft conversions to money, an important idea.

It is easy to be "ignorant" with Internet marketing. Internet marketing is a mystery wrapped in an enigma. The minute you think you've figured something out you are in real trouble (lol). Read this article carefully, connect even your softest conversions to money, track their progress and value them so others may as well and a small part of IM's mystery will be solved.
