Influencer ROI compares the contribution from tracked orders (orders × order value × contribution margin) with everything the campaign cost.

Also called: Influencer marketing ROI calculator, Creator campaign ROI calculator.

## Inputs
- Tracked orders (default 120)
- Average order value (default 75)
- Contribution margin (unit %; default 50)
- Creator fee (default 2500)
- Gifted product cost (default 500; optional)
- Other costs (default ; optional)
- Currency

## Results
- Campaign ROI
- Tracked revenue
- Contribution from orders
- Net return
- Campaign cost per order
- Orders needed to break even

## Formula

```
Contribution = Orders × AOV × Contribution margin;  ROI = (Contribution − Total cost) ÷ Total cost × 100;  Break-even orders = ⌈Total cost ÷ (AOV × Margin)⌉
```

Where:
- Total cost: creator fee + gifted product + other costs (the ROI denominator)
- AOV: average order value after discount

## Worked example
1. Revenue = 120 × 75 = $9,000; contribution = 9,000 × 0.50 = $4,500.
2. Cost = 2,500 + 500 = $3,000; ROI = (4,500 − 3,000) ÷ 3,000 × 100 = 50%.
3. Break-even orders = 3,000 ÷ (75 × 0.50) = 80.

**Result:** 120 tracked orders return 50% on a $3,000 campaign; it needed 80 orders to break even.

## What the result means

Tracked codes and links undercount: some buyers see the post and buy later without the code. Treat the ROI as a floor and compare creators on the same tracking method.

## Assumptions and limits
- Only orders tracked to the creator are counted.
- Contribution margin is the same for every order.
- Brand awareness and content you can reuse in ads are real benefits that this calculation does not value.

## Questions

### Should the discount be included?

Yes: enter the average order value after the discount, so the lost margin is reflected.
