Your Details

Overview

The Social Media Revenue Calculator helps you estimate how much revenue your content could generate from your audience. Enter your followers, engagement rate, conversion rate, average order value and monthly posting volume to get a simple revenue projection per post, per month and per year.

How it works

This calculator starts with your audience size and adjusts it by the average reach per post. It then applies your engagement rate to estimate how many people interact with your content, followed by your conversion rate to estimate how many of those engaged users become customers. Finally, it multiplies those customers by your average order value to estimate revenue per post, then scales that figure by your monthly posting frequency.
