Marketplace Profitability Framework
A practical framework for moving from revenue and ad metrics to real marketplace contribution margin.
- Demanda Sales, sessions, conversion and attributed revenue show the demand signal.
- Medios de comunicación ROAS, ACOS, TACoS and spend show how demand is being supported by advertising.
- Ciencias económicas COGS, marketplace fees, returns and fulfillment show whether revenue becomes margin.
- Operaciones Stock, pricing and Buy Box explain whether performance can scale profitably.
Marketplace profitability is not a single metric. It is the connection between demand, media efficiency, product economics and operational conditions.
Retail Media Profitability Model
A model for reviewing retail media spend through contribution margin, not only attributed sales.

Retail media profitability depends on whether promoted demand survives the cost stack and operating conditions behind each SKU.
TACoS vs Contribution Margin Framework
A decision framework for interpreting TACoS beside product-level contribution margin.
- dirección TACoS Identify whether ad spend pressure is rising, falling or stable.
- Dirección del margen Check whether contribution margin improves or weakens at the same time.
