What the result means
The required budget shows how much spend may be needed to reach a target if CPC and conversion rate remain stable. It is a planning estimate, not a guarantee.
Required Conversions = Revenue ÷ AOV; Clicks = Conversions ÷ Conversion Rate; Budget = Clicks × CPC
If the required budget is too high, improve conversion rate, lower CPC, or increase average order value.
Example calculation
To reach $50,000 revenue with $100 AOV, 4% conversion rate, and $1.25 CPC, you need 500 conversions, 12,500 clicks, and about $15,625 budget.
Tips for better results
- Raise AOV with bundles and upsells.
- Improve conversion rate before scaling budget.
- Separate prospecting and retargeting budgets.
- Review budget efficiency weekly.
