A TYPICAL DECISIONShould this campaign
get more budget?
A stronger platform return is one input. The review also needs to account for the sales period, attribution, product economics and the capacity to fulfil more orders.
01Check the inputs
Compare delivery and attributed purchases with store orders, promotions, refunds and the agreed reporting window. Flag missing or inconsistent inputs.
02Assess the trade-off
Review acquisition cost against margin assumptions and commercial constraints. Separate new-customer acquisition from remarketing where the data allows.
03Make the next move explicit
Document whether to increase, hold or reduce spend, what to test next and which signals would trigger a review. Your team can trace the reasoning behind the change.
Illustrative decision process. This example does not describe a client account or imply a particular return.
