## Frequently asked questions

### What is the ROAS formula?

ROAS = revenue from ads / ad spend. $9,000 in revenue from $2,500 in spend is a 3.6x ROAS, or 360%.

### What is a good ROAS?

A common target is 4x (400%), but break-even depends on your margins. A business with thin margins needs a higher ROAS than one with high margins to profit.

### What's the difference between ROAS and ROI?

ROAS compares revenue to ad spend only; ROI compares profit to total cost. ROAS is a quick channel metric; ROI is the fuller profitability picture.

### How do I find my break-even ROAS?

Divide 1 by your profit margin. At a 25% margin, break-even ROAS is 4x - below that you lose money on the ads even if revenue looks healthy.

### How can I improve ROAS?

Tighten targeting, improve ad relevance and landing pages to lift conversion rate, cut wasted spend on poor keywords, and raise average order value.
