How do I calculate Looksy ROI?

Compare the measured financial benefit during a test period with the Looksy cost for the same period:
Use your own store data. Looksy does not guarantee a conversion lift, return-rate reduction, or ROI percentage.

What should count as measured benefit?

Include only changes you can support with store data:
  • contribution margin from incremental orders;
  • avoided return-processing and shipping costs;
  • any other documented savings attributable to the test.
Do not count all revenue as profit. Use contribution margin after product, fulfilment, payment, and other variable costs.

What should count as cost?

Include the Looksy subscription and any additional-credit charges shown for the period. Current monthly prices are:
  • Starter: $14.99
  • Growth: $29
  • Scale: $79
Confirm current pricing in Looksy before calculating.

A practical measurement process

  1. Choose a consistent product group and test period.
  2. Record sessions, orders, conversion rate, return rate, contribution margin, and Looksy cost.
  3. Compare like-for-like periods or run an A/B test where possible.
  4. Separate correlation from causation and note promotions, stock changes, seasonality, and traffic-mix changes.
  5. Calculate a range using conservative, expected, and optimistic assumptions.
A worked example is only a model. It is not evidence that another store will achieve the same result.

How long should I measure?

Wait until the sample is large enough to make the comparison useful. Return-rate analysis also needs enough time for the applicable return window to close. Avoid drawing conclusions from a small number of shoppers or orders.

What should I report?

Document:
  • the test dates and product group;
  • traffic and order counts;
  • conversion and return-rate calculations;
  • contribution-margin assumptions;
  • Looksy subscription and usage costs;
  • factors that may have affected the result;
  • confidence level and next action.

Conversion Tracking

Define events and attribution before evaluating impact.

A/B Testing

Compare a test group with a suitable control.
