    What is ROAS?

    Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) is a marketing metric that measures the revenue generated for every pound spent on advertising. It helps businesses evaluate the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns and make data-driven decisions about their marketing budget.

    How to Calculate ROAS and Break-even ROAS

    Calculating ROAS

    ROAS = (Revenue from Ads ÷ Cost of Ads) × 100

    Step-by-step:

    1. Identify the total revenue generated from your ad campaign
    2. Determine the total cost spent on that campaign
    3. Divide the revenue by the cost
    4. Multiply by 100 to get the percentage

    Example:

    If you spent £1,000 on Facebook ads and generated £4,500 in revenue:

    ROAS = (£4,500 ÷ £1,000) × 100 = 450%

    This means for every £1 spent, you earned £4.50 in revenue.

    Calculating Break-even ROAS

    Break-even ROAS tells you the minimum return needed to cover your costs without making a profit or loss. It accounts for your profit margin on products/services sold.

    Break-even ROAS = (1 ÷ Profit Margin) × 100

    Step-by-step:

    1. Calculate your profit margin as a decimal (e.g., 25% = 0.25)
    2. Divide 1 by your profit margin
    3. Multiply by 100 to get the percentage

    Example:

    If your profit margin is 25%:

    Break-even ROAS = (1 ÷ 0.25) × 100 = 400%

    You need at least 400% ROAS to cover all costs. Anything above 400% is profit.
