Understanding Your Results

Once you’ve entered the above three values, this tool will provide the results for you. Here’s what these results mean…

Cost Per Subscriber

This number will let you know how much you are spending on each email message (in the campaign). It’s a calculation of the total cost of the email campaign divided by the number of email messages.

Total Revenue

This is your total sales. Your sales number, the one that you entered, is the result of the number of conversions you had for your top line sales.

Total Profit

This number is the result of your total revenue, minus the cost of your email campaing.

Revenue Per Email

This is a value displaying the average of how much money each email message earned. It’s a result of the total sales, divided by the number of email messages sent.

Sales Break Even

This is a number that let’s you know how much sales you need to at least recoup your expenses (with zero profit).

ROI Percentage

This value is what you should be focusing on. It is a percentage of the return on your investment (you should receive more money than you spend). The higher the percentage, the better.
