A proposito di questo titolo
In this episode of the Beyond Logic Podcast, we break down why ROAS is not the ultimate measure of success in e-commerce and DTC, and why Contribution Margin is a far more important metric for building a profitable, scalable business.
Many brands chase high ROAS numbers without realizing they’re still losing money once costs like product, fulfillment, payment processing, and overhead are factored in. This episode explains why ROAS alone can be misleading, how Contribution Margin reveals whether you’re actually making or losing money per transaction, and why revenue doesn’t always equal cash in the bank.
We also discuss when a negative contribution margin might be acceptable (and when it absolutely isn’t), why shorter LTV windows like 30–90 days matter more than long-term projections, and how understanding these metrics impacts inventory planning, product development, and growth decisions.
If you’re a founder, operator, or marketer who wants to scale responsibly — not just chase vanity metrics, this episode will change how you evaluate performance.
