The Formula Explained
ROAS = \( \frac{\text{Revenue}}{\text{Ad Spend}} \)
Glossary of Terms
- Ad Spend: The total amount spent on advertising.
- Revenue: The total revenue generated from the ads.
- ROAS: Return on Ad Spend, a metric that measures the revenue generated per dollar of ad spend.
Practical Example: How It Works
Consider a campaign where you spent $500 on ads and generated $2500 in revenue. The ROAS would be calculated as follows: \( \frac{2500}{500} = 5 \). This means for every dollar spent on advertising, you earned five dollars in return.

ROAS, or Return on Ad Spend, is a metric used to measure the effectiveness of online advertising campaigns. It calculates the revenue generated for every dollar spent on advertising.

Is ROAS a useful metric for all types of businesses?
