Responsible planning tools

Use the tools as educational planning aids

These calculators support campaign planning, creator review, and decision-making. They do not guarantee creator earnings, campaign performance, pricing, selection, or legal outcomes.

Estimate creator campaign return

Use this tool to estimate direct creator campaign ROI before or after a campaign. It is best for planning scenarios, post-campaign review, and comparing spend assumptions.

Calculator inputs

  • Campaign spend
  • Creator fees
  • Product cost
  • Management cost
  • Conversions
  • Average order value
  • Gross margin percentage

Formula

`Total Cost = Campaign Spend + Creator Fees + Product Cost + Management Cost`

`Revenue = Conversions × Average Order Value`

`ROI = ((Revenue - Total Cost) / Total Cost) × 100`

`ROAS = Revenue / Total Cost`

`CPA = Total Cost / Conversions`

`Break-even Conversions = Total Cost / Average Order Value`

`Gross Profit = (Revenue × Gross Margin %) - Total Cost`

Result interpretation

Positive ROI means direct revenue is above total cost. Negative ROI means direct revenue is below total cost, but some campaigns may still create awareness, content assets, community engagement, retargeting value, and brand trust.

Worked example

If total cost is ₹70,000, conversions are 120, and average order value is ₹1,200:

`Revenue = 120 × ₹1,200 = ₹1,44,000`

`ROI = ((₹1,44,000 - ₹70,000) / ₹70,000) × 100 = 105.71%`

`ROAS = ₹1,44,000 / ₹70,000 = 2.06`

Disclaimer

This is a planning estimate, not a performance guarantee. Attribution, platform reporting, coupon usage, affiliate tracking, delayed purchases, returns, discounts, margins, and offline sales can affect results.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ROI and ROAS?

ROI compares profit or return against total cost as a percentage. ROAS compares revenue against ad or campaign cost as a ratio.

Why include product cost and management cost?

Creator campaigns often include more than creator fees. Product samples, shipping, team time, agency costs, and paid boosting can change the real return.

Can a campaign with negative direct ROI still be useful?

Yes, if the goal includes awareness, reusable content, audience learning, retargeting assets, or long-term brand trust. Track those separately.
