What is ROAS?

Definition

Return on ad spend: the revenue you get for each unit spent on ads.

Formula: Conversion value divided by spend

ROAS depends on the conversion value being tracked correctly. To judge it, compare it with the break-even ROAS, which comes from the client's margin. A ROAS above break-even is profitable on the first sale, ignoring other costs.
