In short
The challenge
- A business three months old, with no account history to build on.
What we did
- The pixel and its events set up before a pound was spent.
- Orders as the objective, measured on cost per order rather than on reach.
What came of it
- 1,532,861.04 EGP in purchase revenue across 19 days.
- An average ROAS of 40.61, as Meta calculates it.
The diagnosis
Which step the money was stopping at
Before raising a budget or killing a campaign, you have to know exactly where the leak is.
Measurement, before a pound was spent
- The pixel and its events are set up and verified before a pound is spent
- Any figure quoted before that is set up is wrong, not merely less accurate
Any figure quoted before this is set up is wrong, not merely less accurate.

Shots from the board

Meta Ads Manager · 1–19 June 2024: total purchase revenue 1,532,861.04 EGP · average ROAS 40.61
Outcome
The outcome
The ROAS in the screenshot is labelled Average, which means it is the mean across the ads and not total revenue over total spend. We say so because it is the only way to compare our figure with anyone else's on the same basis — the two numbers are different and each is read differently.
Account names are withheld under our agreements with clients, and the detail rows are obscured so their campaign structure is not exposed. The totals and the dates are as they stand.
