Frequently asked questions about UAE marketing metrics
1) How often should I update these calculations?
A monthly review works well for most brands. If you run high volume or high spend campaigns in the UAE, check key metrics weekly and track major launches daily during the first few days.
2) Are these tools useful for every UAE industry?
Yes. Whether you work in ecommerce, hospitality, education, real estate, healthcare or services, these metrics can guide budget decisions and campaign optimisation.
3) Can I customise the quiz or calculators?
You can adjust questions and formulas to match your business model. For deeper automation or data connections, it helps to involve a developer or analytics specialist.
4) Why is customer lifetime value important in the GCC?
Lifetime value shows how much a long term relationship is worth. In markets such as the UAE, repeat customers often spend more over time, so LTV supports smarter acquisition and retention plans.
5) Where can I learn more about analytics and funnel optimisation?
You can explore our articles on tracking, attribution and funnel optimisation, or speak with our team about building a measurement plan tailored to your brand in the UAE and GCC.
6) What is a good ROAS for ecommerce in the UAE?
It depends on your margins and costs, but many ecommerce brands aim for at least 300 to 400 percent return on ad spend on a blended basis. High margin products can work with lower ROAS, while low margin products often need higher ROAS to stay profitable.
7) How often should I check my CPA and CPL?
For always on campaigns, weekly is usually enough. For new campaigns or big seasonal pushes in the UAE, review CPA and CPL at least twice in the first week and daily if you are scaling budgets quickly.
