A mid-size WooCommerce brand was scaling Google Ads on 380% ROAS while net margin collapsed on free-shipping promos. Profit Bid exposed the gap and rebuilt bidding around POAS.

The challenge
The marketing team hit revenue targets but CFO flagged declining contribution margin. Bestsellers with heavy discounts showed strong ROAS. Long-tail accessories with healthy margin were under-funded. Manual spreadsheets couldn't keep up with 2,400 SKUs.
Approach
Connected WooCommerce via Profit Bid plugin with order, refund, and COGS sync.
Mapped shipping subsidies and payment fees into per-order gross profit.
Switched Google Ads conversion upload from revenue to POAS-weighted values.
Deployed A/C/X labels — scaled A products in dedicated Shopping campaigns.
Used Conservative preset auto-optimization for tROAS during promo weeks.

“We finally stopped celebrating ROAS on products that lost money after shipping. POAS changed how merchandising and ads sit in the same meeting.”
