Count the complete cost
Include advertising, production, tools, staff time and agency fees. Use consistent periods and currency.
Connect activity to outcomes
Use tagged links, conversion events, enquiry records and sales data. Note where attribution is incomplete.
Compare profit, not revenue alone
Evaluate the contribution after fulfilment and marketing costs. Some campaigns also create assisted conversions that appear later.
Choose an attribution rule
Decide how direct, assisted and repeat sales will be treated before reviewing a campaign. Apply the same rule consistently and keep a separate view of cash timing when customers pay later.
Include operational capacity
A profitable campaign can still harm the business if support or fulfilment cannot handle demand. Track cancellations, complaints and delivery time alongside marketing return.
Use ROI to allocate, not merely report
Compare channels against the same commercial objective, then make a documented decision about budget, creative and customer journey improvements. Revisit the decision when costs or margins change.
