| Metric | Value | Calculation |

| Meta Spend | $2,400 | Total spent on Meta |
| Customize Product Events | 1,600 | Customizations attributed to Meta |
| Cost per Customize Product | $1.50 | $2,400 ÷ 1,600 |
How It Works
Cost per Customize Product divides your total Meta ad spend by the number of customize product events tracked via the Meta Pixel or Conversions API. A customization event fires when someone selects product options like size, color, engraving, or monogramming after engaging with your ad. High customization rates indicate users actively considering purchases, making this a strong mid-funnel signal.
