A window fitting company is running an AdWords ad about their new range of conservatories. Users who click the ad can submit a form for a free quote, and the form submission is tracked through Conversion Tracking. 20% of the form submissions turn into actual sales, and each sale leads to a further 10% increase in business. Which of the following correctly demonstrates this?
((Average Deal Value) *20%) * 110%
The first thing to identify here is the value to the company for the form submissions. To do this, we take the number of submissions multiplied by the average percentage sales conversion. So in the above example it’s stated that they can convert 20% of form submissions into actual sales. E.g. in 100 form submissions they can expect to convert 20 of them ((Average deal value) * 20%).
But this is not the end of the story, because sales have an additional benefit of generating an additional 10% of sales, from word of mouth. So of the 20 sales we converted, we can expect an additional 2 sales to follow (20 * 10%). Then we add the two parts of the equation together:
((Average deal value) * 20%) + (((Average deal value) * 20%) * 10%)
This is a verbose representation of the equation and can be simplified thus:
((Average deal value) * 20%) * 110%
An advertiser is running a number of Search and Display Network campaigns promoting sales of his latest product, and uses a variety of online advertising platforms to run his ads.

Unrestricted budget on each platform if ROI is positive. Use a different CPA target for each platform that will maximize profits. This target should be established based on sales volume, costs, and the effect on the whole marketing campaign
