The classic ROI (Return on Investment) is a key figure in financial management. It shows whether an investment is worthwhile for the hotelier, e.g. an investment in a marketing campaign.

What is the ADDITIVE+ ROI?

In order to provide a meaningful benchmark against which the success of a campaign can be evaluated, ADDITIVE extends the classic ROI with relevant key figures that influence online marketing.

The ADDITIVE+ ROI goes one step further and takes into account the added value generated for a hotel by a campaign in addition to sales figures (e.g. reservation sales) and classic marketing KPIs such as impressions, reach and clicks.

The ADDITIVE+ ROI is expressed as a percentage. It puts the total added value into relation with the total costs incurred, consisting of agency costs and the budget used.
