Influencer Marketing ROI Calculator

Quick answer: Influencer ROI compares modeled sales (orders × AOV) to the creator’s fee. For blended programs, reconcile with overall marketing ROI so you do not double-count revenue.

Brand lift versus direct response

This calculator needs monetized attribution. Pure awareness lifts require surveys or modeled incremental sales—otherwise ROI is only the direct-response slice you can trace.

How orders Ă— AOV maps to finance

Finance may recognize net sales after returns—apply the same haircut to attributedSales before comparing to benchmarks.

Frequently asked questions

Is influencer marketing ROI measurable with orders and AOV?

Yes for trackable promo or code-attributed orders: multiply order count by average order value for attributed sales, subtract the fee, then divide by the fee for ROI. Untrackable lift requires modeled incrementality instead.

Should I include product cost in influencer ROI?

Gross sales produce one story; contribution after COGS produces another. This model uses sales minus fee as “profit”—add COGS externally if you need margin-accurate ROI.

How is this different from MER?

Marketing efficiency ratio divides total revenue by total ad spend across channels. This page is deal-level for influencer fees versus modeled attributed sales from orders Ă— AOV.
