Mediaplan¶
What Is Mediaplan¶
Mediaplan is a Roistat tool that helps you see how well your advertising campaign targets are being met. You can create a plan for key metrics and track its progress.
How Mediaplan works¶
For example, on May 1, you planned that by June 1, there will be 53 leads from the Facebook advertising channel with a cost of $150.
You need to go to Mediaplan and add planned metrics (the number of leads, cost and CPL) for the Facebook advertising channel.
After that, you can open the report and track the progress of the plan in the statistics. This will allow you to evaluate the effectiveness of the advertising campaign.
Please note:
Planned metrics appear in the report only if a full calendar month is selected as the report period (for example, May 01 - May 31).
