What Is Blended ROAS?

Definition

Blended ROAS is total revenue divided by total advertising spend across the selected business, channels or campaigns.

How Blended ROAS Works

Unlike platform ROAS, it uses an aggregate revenue figure and combined ad spend rather than summing channel-attributed claims.

A Simple Example

If a business generates $1 million in revenue while spending $200,000 across paid media, blended ROAS is 5.0×.

Why Blended ROAS Matters

It provides a company-level efficiency view that avoids double-counting revenue claimed by multiple ad platforms.

Common Misreading

Blended ROAS includes revenue influenced by brand strength, organic traffic, email and repeat customers. A change does not isolate the causal performance of paid media.
