What is Break-even ROAS?

Definition

The ROAS at which ad spend exactly equals the gross profit it brings in.

Formula: One divided by gross margin (as a decimal)

Below it, each sale loses money on the first purchase. Above it, you make a profit before other costs. Work it out from the gross margin, then set a target safely above it.
