What happened

Computed
  • The account spent ₺42,276 and the order book found ₺152,372 behind it, a return of 3.60×. Every revenue figure on this sheet is ours; what Meta and Google claim for themselves is larger and lives on the attribution page.
  • Brand search took 9 per cent of the spend and produced 27 per cent of the revenue. That is the best line in the account and it is the one worth arguing about, because people typing the shop's name were mostly going to arrive anyway. The honest question is not whether it returns eleven times — it is how much of that would have happened for nothing.
  • The spend was up 19 per cent on the period before, and the return moved with it, from 3.84× to 3.60×. That is what more money usually does, and it is the trade to have the argument about: the account bought more orders for a worse rate.
  • ₺2,275 of the spend is Brewing guide · traffic, which runs on a traffic objective. It is inside the total above and outside the return, and it is named here rather than quietly left out so this sheet and the desk add up to the same thing.

How it split, and what came back

Ad platforms · Order store

By platform

  • Meta Ads

    ₺22,15852%

    ₺39,674 back · 1.96× — Across the judged part. ₺2,275 of it runs on a traffic objective and is outside this rate.

  • Google Ads

    ₺20,11748%

    ₺112,697 back · 5.60×

Marketplace advertising is not in this split and not in any figure on this sheet. Neither marketplace exposes it in the seller API, so the money the shop spends there is spent outside this module.

Brewing guide · traffic. It runs on a traffic objective at the Radar's request, and dividing what came back by what went out would produce a number that means nothing.

What was done about it

Entered by hand

    “Two hundred a day to stop going dark at four. Look at it again on Friday and tell me whether the extra two hundred bought anything.”

    Since: It still caps, now at about half past five. Cost per order held. Worth another look.

    “Start it on the 8th with the two frames that passed. The label is still held, so nothing on the ad says what is in the bag.”

    Since: Broad is buying learning rather than orders, as expected. Retargeting is carrying the campaign.

    “Off with the coupon, same hour. Do not leave it running over the weekend the way we did in March.”

    Since: Stopped cleanly. The March mistake cost about eleven thousand lira, which is the reason this one has a rule behind it now.

What this sheet is counting

Order store

Revenue is counted from the shop's own orders, everywhere in this module, including on the screen you keep open during a campaign. The platform's figure is shown beside it and never instead of it, and the two are never averaged.
