ROI Example
ROI, The Apple Co. ran two campaigns at separate times of the
Analytics & year. The goal of an apple company is to sell apples on
their website (who’d have thought).
Media Ethics
Class • Campaign 1 achieved 10,000 visitors to the website,

13/14 $50k to run & delivered $13k of value, which equates
Fall 2011 to an ROI of $0.27.
• Campaign 2 achieved 9,000 visitors, 400 orders, 50
enquiries & 500 email sign-ups. It cost $50k to run &
delivered $24k of value, which equates to an ROI of

each campaign. Campaign 1 returned $0.27 and
campaign 2 returned $0.49, so campaign 2 was nearly
