Understanding the Pacing Sheet

The Pacing Sheet replaces your daily spreadsheet with up-to-date, accurate data directly from Converge. Track your marketing performance over time to spot trends and anomalies in real-time. Your marketing data is displayed in a table format where:
  • Rows represent time periods (day, week, month, or hour)
  • Columns represent metrics (e.g., Ad spend, Revenue, ROAS)
  • Cells are color-coded to highlight performance relative to the selected date range’s average
  • Totals row at the bottom shows totals or averages for each metric
Color coding helps you quickly identify:
  • Green cells: Performance above the average
  • Red cells: Performance below the average
  • Intensity: Darker colors indicate larger deviations from the average

FAQ

Color coding uses statistical analysis (z-scores) to compare each cell’s performance against the selected date range’s average for that metric.
  • Values that are significantly performing better than the average are highlighted in green
  • Values that are significantly performing worse than the average are highlighted in red
  • The intensity of the color indicates how far from average the value is
  • Values close to the average remain uncolored
This helps you quickly spot time periods with unusual performance that might require attention.

The Attribution Report shows performance by channel, campaign, ad set, or ad. The Pacing Sheet shows performance over time, making it ideal for:
  • Performance tracking over time
  • Spotting trends and anomalies
  • Comparing performance across different time periods
  • Replacing manual spreadsheet tracking
Both reports use the same underlying data but present it in different formats for different use cases.
