Figuring ecpm's for geo's on Decisive

Brand Newbie here,

Can someone tell me how this is done w/ the information in the Decisive planner? I'm reviewing the tutorial on campaign math and I don't see how I can get this value.

I got an email from F5 w/ these instructions/suggestions:

Here is our top offer list - I suggest you filter for CPI [either under the converts column or the offer title column] - once you have this list, take a look at the geos and EPCs. Now go to your Mobile Ad Network, and take a look at their planner - take our epcs and multiply them by 1000 then minus the ad network ecpm price for the geo - if the result is positive , this could be a good offer to start with.


I've narrowed down their list to 5 offers

For example, one of them has a conversion rate of 4% and an epc of $.04

Seems like something silly to get hung up on, but here I am.

Any help will be appreciated

Jamie

Did the calculations for F5Media top offers. Find below. Hope this clarifies. You can get the decisive avg cpm costs from https://app.decisive.is/planner/

Thank you so much. Can I ask how you did the calculations. I thought I understood pretty well from the tutorial how to calculate ecpm, but I didn't think I had enough data to calculate it. I found the planner and the cpm for the geo.

Visits from Traffic source per 1000 Impr. (Assuming 1% CTR) = 1000 X 0.01 = 10 visits

Earnings per 1000 Impr. Assuming 1% CTR = EPC (Earnings Per click from F5media) X (Visits from Traffic source per 1000 Impr.)

Decisive Avg Cost Per 1000 Impr. in Geo/OS = Get Avg CPM from Decisive planner in the specific GEO and specific OS.

Estimated Profit per 1000 Impr. = (Decisive Avg Cost Per 1000 Impr. in Geo/OS) - (Earnings per 1000 Impr. Assuming 1% CTR)

Estimated ROI = ((Estimated Profit per 1000 Impr.)/(Decisive Avg Cost Per 1000 Impr. in Geo/OS)) X 100

Hope that explains.

Be aware this is just a very casual way to gauge for potential, but should by no means make you decide not to test something (unless it's ridiculous, e.g. offer is converting at $0.005 EPC and traffic has a $5 CPM.
