Blended Return on Ad Spend (Blended ROAS)

Overview

Blended Return on Ad Spend (Blended ROAS) is the ratio of order revenue to the total advertising expenditure, including both channel ad spend and custom ad spend, across all channels.

📘

Blended ROAS = Order Revenue / Blended Ad Spend

The calculation is based on data in the Blended Stats table.

Detailed Breakdown

The formula above is derived from the following components:

Order Revenue = SUM(order_revenue) --> Orders table
Blended Ad Spend = spend + custom_ad_spend

Where:

spend = SUM(spend) --> Ads table
custom_ad_spend = SUM(IF(is_ad_spend, amount, 0)) --> Custom Spend table
