How Would You Calculate ROI?Paramount Pictures:#Super8Secret Promoted Trend created a tremendous spike in conversations: ● Tweets of the hashtag reached 9 million impressions in 24 hours ● 20,000 Mentions of the movie skyrocketed to 150 per minute● Receipts for the sneak preview exceeded $1 million● Paramount said opening weekend box office surpassed expectations by 52% ($35,451,168)

● ROI Calculation:● Promoted Trend: $120K/day● 9 million Impressions = 9,000 * CPM ($0.10) = $900● 20,000 Mentions = 20,000 * 2 = $40,000● Sneak Preview Revenues = $1 million

ROI = ($1,000,000 + $40,000 + $900 - $120,000) / $120,000 = 7.67
