Understanding the Product-level Dashboard

The product dashboard shows per EAN how your products are performing in ads, organically, and in total. See at a glance which products contribute to your results and which are lagging behind.

The product dashboard combines ad and organic data per product at EAN level. At the top you see the total performance of your account in the selected period. Below that is the product performance table, where you can see for each individual product what it delivers and what it costs. All columns can be configured via the Columns button, so you see exactly the data that’s relevant for you.

The metrics at the top

At the top of the dashboard you see an overview of your total account performance over the selected period, compared to the period before. Green means improvement, red means decline.

ROAS / ACoS

ROAS is the revenue per euro of ad spend. ACoS is the percentage of revenue you spend on ads. You can switch between both views

Next to each metric you can see the number from the previous period as a comparison, indicated with Prev.

The product performance table

Under the metrics you’ll find the product performance table. Here you see each EAN as a separate row, with all performance data broken down. You can search by EAN number or listing title using the search bar at the top of the table.

The columns are grouped into three categories that you’ll see as column headers: Ads for advertising data, Organic for organic data, and Total for combined figures.

Period management and comparison

At the top right you set the period. You choose the desired time range and then the comparison period. The default option is Period before, where the system automatically uses the equally long previous period as comparison. Changes compared to the previous period appear in green or red next to each value.

How do you use the product dashboard?

Identify your top performers and underperformers Sort the table by Ads Sales from high to low to see which products generate the most advertising revenue. Compare that with the Ads Cost to assess whether the ratio makes sense. A product with high sales and low costs is your most efficient advertising product.

Use TACoS as the fairest metric ACoS only measures the ratio between advertising costs and advertising revenue. TACoS measures the ratio between advertising costs and total revenue, including organic. A product with a high ACoS but many organic sales can still be very profitable. TACoS gives that complete picture.

Pay attention to indirect conversions Indirect conversions show that a click on product A led to the purchase of product B from your assortment. This is valuable information: your ad did generate revenue, just not on the advertised product. If you see a lot of indirect conversions, your ads are working as brand drivers for your broader assortment.

Compare RPC per product RPC, Revenue Per Click, shows how much a click on an ad yields on average. Products with a high RPC are attractive to allocate more budget to. Products with a low RPC but high costs are candidates to optimize or scale down.
