Fospha Report Reveals Paid Social Underinvestment
The Fospha State of eCommerce Report for Q1 2024 uncovers a critical gap in paid social advertising, showing marketers are tapping only 59 percent of their potential reach. This means advertisers could almost double their spend on paid social channels and still see profitable returns. Are you leaving money on the table by underinvesting in these platforms?
The data clearly signals a major opportunity for growth by reallocating budget toward paid social efforts.
Meta And TikTok Lead Paid Social Performance
Meta and TikTok dominate the paid social space, but in different ways. Meta delivers the highest relative Return On Ad Spend (ROAS), proving it remains the powerhouse for efficient ad dollars. Meanwhile, TikTok excels at new customer acquisition, outperforming other channels in driving fresh conversions. If your strategy focuses solely on ROAS, Meta should be your priority; if acquiring new customers is your goal, TikTok deserves more attention. Both platforms offer measurable, data-backed advantages critical for scaling beyond basics.
Snapchat’s Dramatic ROAS Growth Demands Attention
Snapchat’s recent platform update has transformed it into a breakout growth channel. The report highlights a staggering 504 percent year-over – year increase in ROAS on Snapchat, an eye-popping metric that marketers cannot ignore. This surge makes Snapchat a compelling option for eCommerce brands looking to diversify paid social investments and capture emerging audiences. Are you prepared to explore Snapchat’s evolving ad ecosystem before your competitors do?

Attribution Models Undervalue Impressions Led Channels
One of the most strategic challenges revealed by the report is the widespread underrepresentation of impressions-led channels in attribution models used by Google Analytics and ad platforms. This discrepancy distorts performance measurement and can mislead decision-making. Without standardized measurement methods, you risk underallocating budget to channels that actually drive value. How confident are you that your current analytics accurately reflect the true impact of your paid social campaigns?
Strategic Steps To Scale Paid Social Profitably
The key takeaway is clear: now is the moment to reassess your paid social investment strategy. Increase your spend where data shows untapped potential, especially on Meta and TikTok, while testing Snapchat’s remarkable growth. Simultaneously, adopt more reliable and standardized attribution methods to ensure you are measuring performance correctly. The Fospha report provides a data-driven compass to optimize your digital marketing budget and scale your eCommerce brand beyond basic tactics.
