How the result break down

Di itemValue wey e get

Revenue na orders times order value; gross profit apply margin to revenue. ROI na net profit divided by production cost.

Quick look at the result

Dem scale the bars against the bigger of production cost and gross profit. Profit must pass the cost bar before net profit fit positive.

ROI as number of views dey change

Case wey you wan compareValue wey e get

Each row reuse your conversion rate, order value, margin, and cost and vary only views, so you fit find view count wey break even.

Formula

ROI = (views × conversion% × order value × margin% − production cost) ÷ production cost × 100%. Orders = views × conversion%. Gross profit wey you get = orders × order value × margin%.

Example wey show the calculation

Cost $1,800, views 50,000, conversion 0.8%, order value $199, margin 55%. Orders = 50,000 × 0.8% = 400. Revenue = 400 × $199 = $79,600. Gross profit = $79,600 × 55% = $43,780. Net = $43,780 − $1,800 = $41,980. ROI = $41,980 ÷ $1,800 × 100% = 2,332.22%. Break-even views at these rates be about 2,056 views (cost divided by profit per view of $0.8756: 0.8% x $199 x 55%).

Where e fit work and limits

Views and conversion na your assumptions, no be traffic forecast; view count no dey guarantee that conversion rate, and past content na only rough guide. Revenue alone no be profit — margin input dey do that work, so overstated margin dey overstate ROI directly. Attribution no modeled: orders credited to piece fit don influenced by other channels, and production cost here na single figure, excluding distribution, promotion, and revision costs unless you include dem inside am.

Questions wey people dey ask often

How dem dey calculate ROI?

Orders na views times conversion rate; gross profit na orders times order value times margin; ROI na gross profit minus production cost, divided by production cost, times 100%.

Which conversion rate I suppose use?

Use rate wey you measure from similar past content with the same offer and audience; no use platform average. If you no get measured rate, run the page at several rates and see how far ROI dey move.

Why margin dey inside the formula?

Because revenue no be profit. Without margin, high-revenue, low-margin product dey look far better than e be. Enter gross margin on orders themselves, after product and fulfilment costs.

Wetin count as production cost?

Everything spent making piece: creator time or fees, editing, props, locations, and licences. Add paid promotion separately if you want am counted — either include am inside cost or run second scenario.

ROI fit pass 1,000%?

Arithmetically yes, when low-cost piece convert well, as in worked example. Na property of ratio, not evidence say next piece go repeat am — small costs dey make percentage swing wildly.

This tool dey forecast views?

No. Views na input you supply. Page dey tell you wetin given view count go worth for your conversion and margin, no be how many views you go get.
