Understanding TikTok Ad Metrics

When to Focus on CPM

Use CPM as your primary metric for brand awareness campaigns where your goal is maximum reach and impressions, not immediate conversions.

When CPM Doesn't Matter

For conversion campaigns, focus on CPA (Cost Per Acquisition) or ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) instead. A high CPM is fine if your conversion rate is excellent.

Pro Tip: Compare your CPM to your engagement rate and conversion rate. A $10 CPM with 10% conversion rate is better than a $2 CPM with 1% conversion.
