Budget and Flighting Example
If you have a fixed budget and limited campaign duration, you can control delivery using Flighting settings:
Example:
- Budget: $1000
- Campaign Dates: May 1 – May 8
- CMP: $5
To run the campaign within this timeframe:
- Disable the "Run Indefinitely" checkbox.
- Set the Start Date and End Date accordingly.
Step 1: Calculate Total Impressions
To determine the total number of impressions the budget allows:
1000 (USD) /5 (USD per 1000 imp)=200 (units of 1000 impressions) = 200,000 impressions total
Step 2: Daily Impression Limit
200,000 impressions / 8 days=25,000 impressions per day
Step 3: Hourly Impression Limit
25,000 impressions / 24 hours ≈ 1042 impressions per hour
Final Summary for Delivery Settings:
- Daily Limit: 25,000 impressions
- Hourly Limit: ≈1042 impressions
Use these values in the Advanced Settings of the campaign to ensure smooth pacing throughout the campaign duration.
As additional step you can set a Daily Revenue cap: of $1000/8=$125
