Full Resolution Time

Full Resolution Time is the time duration between the ticket creation date and the ticket solved or closed date. Along with a solution that helps the customer and solves the problem, the less time it takes to get to a resolution is good for you and good for the customer. Resolution time is usually measured in hours or days.

Full-Time Employees

Full-Time Employees are permanent staff members who typically work more than 30 hours per week or four days weekly, depending on your organisation's definition and local labour standards. Unlike temporary, seasonal, or contract workers, full-time employees represent your core workforce with ongoing employment relationships. In most jurisdictions, full-time employees are entitled to comprehensive benefits including healthcare coverage, vacation pay, statutory holidays, and other employment standards protections as defined by local labour laws.

Full-Time Equivalents

Full-Time Equivalents (FTE) is a standardised workforce measurement that converts all employee types—full-time, part-time, contractors, interns, and temporary workers—into equivalent full-time positions. This calculated metric provides a unified view of your total workforce capacity by expressing everyone's contribution as fractions of a standard full-time schedule (typically 40 hours per week or 5 days). Unlike simply counting heads, FTE gives you the true picture of your organisational capacity and enables accurate cross-company comparisons regardless of employment structure.

General and Administrative to Revenue Ratio

The General and Administrative to Revenue Ratio measures the percentage of total revenue consumed by corporate overhead and administrative functions that support overall business operations but don't directly generate revenue. This metric encompasses executive compensation, legal and professional services, accounting and audit fees, insurance, corporate facilities, administrative technology systems, and governance-related expenses. For CEOs, this ratio represents operational efficiency and the company's ability to scale without proportional increases in overhead burden. Finance leaders view this as a critical profitability driver, while HR leaders must balance necessary support functions with cost optimization pressures. This ratio is particularly complex because it often includes irregular, one-time expenses such as legal settlements, restructuring costs, acquisition-related fees, or extraordinary professional services that can significantly distort underlying operational trends. Unlike other expense ratios that correlate with business growth or strategic initiatives, G&A expenses ideally should grow slower than revenue as companies achieve operational leverage and economies of scale. The challenge lies in distinguishing between necessary infrastructure investments that support future growth and inefficient overhead accumulation that erodes profitability without strategic benefit.

Get Directions Clicks

Get Directions Clicks is the count of the number of times people have clicked on a link to get directions to the physical location of your business. You can usually include a link on your social media profiles connected to a map that makes it easier for customers to find you.

Goal Completion Rate

Goal Completion Rate is the percentage of visitors who complete every step of a defined goal, out of all visitors. A goal counts as complete only when a visitor finishes every required action in the sequence.

Goal Completions

Goal conversions represent the successful completion of predefined actions that align with your business objectives and indicate meaningful user engagement with your website or digital platform. Unlike simple page views or clicks, goal conversions measure outcomes that directly contribute to your business success, such as form submissions, product purchases, newsletter sign-ups, or content downloads. Understanding goal conversions is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns, website design, and overall digital strategy.

Goal Conversion Rate

Goal Conversion Rate is the percentage of website sessions that result in a predefined user action. It measures how often visitors complete a specific, valuable action — such as a form submission, newsletter signup, or purchase — during a session.

Goal Conversions

Goal Conversions is the count of the number of goals that have been completed during a session on a website. Goals are predefined user actions indicating that campaign objectives are met.

Gross Burn

Gross Burn is the total cash a company spends on operations each month, including salaries, rent, overhead, interest, and taxes. Unlike Net Burn, Gross Burn does not account for revenue — it reflects the full cost of keeping the business running.

Gross Margin

Gross Margin is a profitability ratio that measures Gross Profit as a percentage of total revenue. Typically, it is calculated as Gross Profit divided by Revenue. This metric is a key indicator of a company's financial health and operational efficiency.

Gross Margin Return on Investment

GMROI is a retail and supply chain metric that measures how much gross profit a business earns for every dollar invested in inventory. It combines profit margin and inventory turnover into a single number, helping retailers identify which products and categories generate the strongest return on their inventory investment.
