Understanding ROAS

ROAS = Revenue from Ads / Cost of Ads

A 3x ROAS means you earn $3 for every $1 spent. But "good" ROAS varies by business model and margins.

10 Strategies to Improve ROAS

1. Audit Your Tracking

Broken tracking = bad data = poor optimization. Ensure:

  • Pixel is firing correctly
  • Conversions are deduped
  • Attribution window is appropriate

2. Cut Losing Campaigns

Identify campaigns below target ROAS and either:

  • Pause immediately
  • Reduce budget significantly
  • Test new creative/audience

3. Double Down on Winners

Increase budget on campaigns exceeding targets. Don't spread budget evenly.

4. Improve Creative Quality

Creative is the biggest lever. Test:

  • New hooks
  • Different formats
  • Various value propositions

5. Refine Targeting

Remove poor-performing:

  • Placements
  • Demographics
  • Interests
  • Locations

6. Optimize Landing Pages

A 1% conversion rate increase can boost ROAS by 50%+. Test:

  • Page speed
  • Headlines
  • CTAs
  • Social proof

7. Use Value-Based Bidding

Optimize for purchase value, not just conversions.

8. Exclude Past Purchasers

Stop paying to show ads to people who already bought.

9. Test New Platforms

Sometimes the best ROAS is on a platform you haven't tried.

10. Automate Optimization

AI can optimize faster than humans. Use tools that adjust in real-time.
