Email Campaign Financial Performance Formula

Gross Revenue = Sends × Open Rate × Click Rate × Conversion Rate × AOV; Campaign ROI (%) = ((Gross Revenue - Campaign Cost) / Campaign Cost) × 100
  • Revenue Per Email Sent (RPES): Total campaign revenue divided by total delivered recipients.
  • Conversion Funnel: Recipients → Opens → Clicks → Conversions → Average Order Value (AOV).
  • Campaign Cost: Production fees, copy, design, and incremental ESP sending charges.

Step-by-Step Worked Example

Scenario: Direct-to-consumer brand sending a promotional product drop to 40,000 active subscribers

Calculation Steps:

  1. Calculate total generated orders: 40,000 × 0.28 × 0.12 × 0.035 = 47.04 orders
  2. Calculate gross attributed sales: 47 × $95.00 = $4,465.00
  3. Calculate net campaign profit: $4,465 - $450 = $4,015.00
  4. Calculate ROI: (($4,465 - $450) / $450) × 100 = 892.2%
  5. Calculate Revenue Per Email Sent: $4,465 / 40,000 = $0.1116 per send
Result: The campaign generated $4,465.00 in revenue with an 892.2% ROI ($9.92 returned per dollar spent) and $0.11 revenue per email sent.
