Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate marketing ROI?

Subtract your marketing cost from the revenue it generated, divide by the cost, and multiply by 100. Spending 2,000 dollars to drive 6,000 in revenue is a 200 percent ROI. Include tool and labor costs for a true picture.

What is a good marketing ROI in 2026?

A common benchmark is 5:1, or 400 percent, with 10:1 considered exceptional. Anything below 2:1 usually struggles once you account for overhead. Margins vary by industry, so anchor your targets to your own cost structure.

Yes, it is free after creating a Brainito account. Measure as many channels and campaigns as you like and rerun the numbers each quarter as new results come in.
