A business with high margins can be profitable at a ROAS of 2; a low-margin business may need a ROAS of 6+ to be profitable. There is no universal benchmark.<\/p><h3>Do I need a CRM to track ROI accurately?<\/h3><p>For lead-generation businesses, yes \u2014 without it, ad-platform conversion data stops at \u201clead,\u201d not revenue. E-commerce businesses can often track revenue directly through the platform or GA4.<\/p><h3>How often should offline conversions be uploaded?<\/h3><p>Daily or weekly is typical.
