ROAS is a margin question first
Return on ad spend is revenue attributed to ads divided by ad spend. A "good" number depends on contribution margin, refunds and how much you can afford to pay for a first order. Agree the target before launch. Vanity metrics (likes, cheap CPC) do not pay inventory.

Tracking and weekly rhythm
Run a structural audit before you scale (ad account self-audit checklist). Confirm pixel or equivalent events, purchase value accuracy and discount code leakage. Weekly: ROAS by campaign and creative, MER if you use it, creative fatigue notes, next tests. One owner across media and creative so reports match the ad account (services).
Fees and spend floors: see live offer pages. This article does not restate phone, address or pricing.
