What is ROAS?

Definition

ROAS, or the Return on Ad Spend metric, allows property managers and marketers to assess the performance of their advertising strategies by comparing the revenue generated.

Expressed as a ratio, a higher ROAS indicates a more successful campaign, signifying that the methods employed are effective in attracting and retaining tenants. 

Why it Matters?

  • Efficient Budget Allocation: Understanding ROAS helps in directing advertising spend towards the most effective strategies.
  • Performance Measurement: ROAS provides a clear metric to gauge the success of advertising campaigns.
  • Strategic Decision Making: By analyzing ROAS, multifamily property marketers can make informed decisions about future campaigns.

Example

Let's say you invested $1500 in Google Ads and made a lease with a value of $6000.
So, the ROAS will be: Final Leasing Value / Google Ad Spend = $6000/$1500 = 4:1
