How 3-5% CTR Drives 3.5x ROAS

The CTR → Quality Score → ROAS Chain

Current State (Estimated):

  • CTR: 1-2%
  • Quality Score: 5-6/10
  • CPC: High
  • Ad Position: 3-4
  • Result: Mediocre performance

Optimized State:

  • CTR: 3-5%
  • Quality Score: 8-9/10
  • CPC: 20-30% lower
  • Ad Position: 1-2
  • Result: Exceptional performance

Why Higher CTR Matters

  1. Lower CPC = More Clicks

    • 25% lower CPC = 33% more clicks for same budget
    • More traffic to converting products
  2. Higher Quality Score = Better Ad Positions

    • Position 1-2 instead of 3-4
    • Higher visibility = even more clicks
  3. Virtuous Cycle

    • Better positions → Higher CTR → Better Quality Score → Lower CPC → More clicks → Higher ROAS
  4. Buyer Intent Focus

    • "ashwagandha gummies buy" (buyer intent) converts at 5-8%
    • "ashwagandha benefits" (research) converts at 0.5-1%
    • Focusing on buyer keywords = 5-10x better conversion rate
