Cost Per Result is a performance metric that measures the average cost of achieving a specific marketing goal – such as a click, lead, impression, conversion, or purchase. It helps evaluate campaign efficiency and budget allocation.
Divide your total cost by the number of results (actions) achieved. The result shows how much each conversion or action costs on average.
Cost Per Result = Total Spend ÷ Total Number of Results
Cost Per Result = Total Spend ÷ Total Number of Results
