A campaign targeting several countries often allocates spend unevenly. Cheap clicks can dominate while higher-cost markets produce the customers. Country-level reporting should answer where the next approved dollar belongs, not simply rank markets by CPC. This worksheet also handles the uncomfortable case where there are too few outcomes to choose a winner.

How to run the investigation
Confirm serviceability
List the countries the business can serve, relevant languages, pricing and payment restrictions. A low-cost market outside the client’s operating area is not a promising expansion opportunity just because it improves a blended average.
Build the outcome table
For each country, record spend, visits, lead or purchase events and confirmed quality where available. Keep the currency consistent. Mark missing lead-quality data explicitly and do not silently classify unreviewed leads as qualified.
Compare mature cohorts
Allow equal time for conversion and qualification. A country that launched yesterday should not compete on the same footing as one with a month of observed sales. Display the denominator next to every rate and avoid firm rankings from one conversion.
Design an allocation test
Propose a country split or allocation change inside the approved total. Include expected evidence, not promised results: enough visits, a qualification review and a stop date. Consider a localized message or destination before blaming the whole market.
Decision worksheet
Use these rows to turn the investigation into an action. Add the actual account, date range, evidence and owner before sharing it with a client.
| What you find | Interpretation | Next move |
|---|---|---|
| Cheap clicks, no qualified outcomes | Low-cost traffic is not necessarily value | Review intent, language and serviceability. |
| Higher CPC, several real customers | Business economics may be stronger | Compare mature qualified CPA. |
| One sale in a small sample | Ranking is unstable | Continue a bounded test or hold judgment. |

Worked example: an illustration, not a customer result
In an illustration, Market A spends $200 for 20 leads but only one is qualified; Market B spends $300 for 10 leads and five qualify. Form CPA favors A at $10 versus $30. Qualified CPA favors B at $60 versus $200. Use the outcome the client actually pays for, and do not treat five qualifications as unlimited scaling evidence.

A question worth asking
Should every country have its own campaign?
Not automatically. Separate structure when you need meaningful control or a distinct offer and have enough evidence to evaluate it. Excessive fragmentation can make already small samples harder to interpret.
