ROAS

Definition

Return on Ad Spend. A metric that measures how much revenue you generate for every dollar spent on advertising. ROAS is calculated by dividing total revenue by ad spend. A ROAS of 2.0x means you earn $2 for every $1 spent. For film marketing, ROAS can be difficult to measure because viewers may watch on a platform weeks after clicking your link.

Example

If you spend $3,000 on ads and those campaigns generate $6,000 in rental revenue, your ROAS is 2.0x.
