1. What is ROAS?

ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) is a marketing metric that measures the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. It shows how much revenue you earn for every dollar spent on advertising.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the ROAS formula:

Where:

• Conversion Value — Total revenue generated from ads (USD)
• Ad Cost — Total amount spent on advertising (USD)

Explanation: A ROAS of 5 means you earn $5 for every $1 spent on advertising. Higher values indicate more effective campaigns.

3. Importance of ROAS Calculation

Details: ROAS helps marketers evaluate campaign performance, optimize ad spend, and make data-driven decisions about where to allocate marketing budgets.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the total revenue generated from ads and the total ad spend in USD. Both values must be positive numbers (ad cost must be greater than 0).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is a good ROAS?
A: Generally, a ROAS of 4:1 ($4 revenue per $1 spent) is considered good, but this varies by industry and profit margins.

Q2: How is ROAS different from ROI?
A: ROAS measures immediate advertising effectiveness, while ROI considers all costs (including product costs, overhead) to determine true profit.

Q3: Can ROAS be negative?
A: No, since both inputs are positive values. However, a ROAS < 1 means you're losing money on ads.

Q4: Should I only look at ROAS for campaign success?
A: No, also consider customer lifetime value, brand awareness, and other metrics depending on campaign goals.

Q5: How often should I calculate ROAS?
A: Regularly monitor ROAS - daily for active campaigns, weekly/monthly for ongoing analysis and optimization.
