Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good target ROAS? ▼

A typical ecommerce benchmark is 3.0x to 4.0x (300% to 400%), though your ideal target ROAS depends directly on gross profit margin. High-margin products (70%+) can scale profitably above 2.0x ROAS, whereas low-margin products (25%) require 5.0x or higher to cover COGS and overhead.

How do you calculate break even ROAS? ▼

Divide 1 by your Profit Margin Percentage (expressed as a decimal): Break Even ROAS = 1 / Profit Margin %. For example, with a 50% gross margin, your Break Even ROAS is 1 / 0.50 = 2.0x (200%), meaning every $1 in ad spend must return $2 in attributed revenue to avoid losing money.

How does ROAS differ from ROI? ▼

ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) evaluates gross revenue generated per dollar of advertising spend alone (Ad Revenue / Ad Spend). ROI (Return on Investment) measures true bottom-line net profitability after deducting all business expenses including COGS, shipping, software fees, agency retainers, and ad costs.
