I want $10,000 more per month—what conversion lift do I need with my current traffic and AOV?

Short answer:

Lift % = Target extra revenue ÷ (Traffic × Baseline Conversion × AOV).
If you know your monthly traffic, your current conversion rate (CR), and your average order value (AOV), you can back-solve the exact conversion lift needed to add $10,000/month—before you spend a dollar on new traffic.

How to back-solve your lift (quick math)

Step 1 — Get your baseline conversions
Baseline conversions = Traffic × Baseline CR. Example: 5,000 visits × 2.5% = 125 orders.

Step 2 — Convert $10,000 into “orders needed”
Orders needed = Target extra revenue ÷ AOV.
If AOV is $120, then $10,000 ÷ 120 = 83.33 additional orders.

Step 3 — Solve for lift %
Lift % = Orders needed ÷ Baseline conversions.
83.33 ÷ 125 = 66.7% lift (relative). That means lifting CR from 2.5% to roughly 4.17%.

That may sound big; often you’ll combine a modest CR lift with more qualified traffic. Use the calculator to compare scenarios (e.g., +10% lift vs. +1,000 visits). Google defines “lift” as a relative increase versus your baseline, which is the right way to model improvements. Google Help

Why this works especially well in El Paso

Two practical realities drive results here:

Visibility & trust drive local decisions. Consumers lean on Google results and reviews to pick local businesses; complete Business Profiles and review activity affect whether you’re seen and chosen. Improving this raises the portion of people who convert. Google HelpBrightLocal

Bilingual presence expands who will buy. El Paso is a large, bilingual market. Having English and Spanish touchpoints (GBP posts, landing pages, messages) removes friction and grows both reach and conversion. (See Census language tables for El Paso city.) Census Data

What should I improve to get that lift?

Start with credibility and clarity—they usually beat “more traffic” on ROI:

Google Business Profile (GBP): Fill every field (categories, services, hours, photos), post updates, and respond to every review. Google’s help docs state that complete and accurate info improves how often you show in local results. Google Help
Reviews & responses: Review quality, recency, and responses meaningfully influence selection; most shoppers check more than one review site. Make replies fast and useful. BrightLocal
EN/ES landing pages & forms: Match the language of your ads and neighborhood; reduce friction on calls, chat, and checkout. (Use Spanish extensions or a bilingual phone tree.) Census Data
Speed-to-lead & UX: Answer calls/DMs quickly; remove extra steps; show price/offer clearly; show proof (before/after, guarantees). Small UX fixes commonly yield a 5–15% relative lift.

AOV = avg dollars per order (revenue ÷ orders).
Monthly Traffic = pick one channel (site visits, walk-ins, or calls).
Baseline Conversion Rate = % that buys now (conversions ÷ traffic × 100).
Expected Lift = relative % improvement (2.0%→2.2% is a 10% lift).

New Conversions–

Additional Conversions–

Incremental Revenue–

Logic: revenue gain = traffic × baseCR × lift × AOV.

(Tap EN/ES to switch languages. “Expected Lift (%)” is relative—e.g., 2.0% → 2.2% is a 10% lift.)

How the calculator works (and what each field means)

AOV ($): Average dollars per order (revenue ÷ orders).
Monthly Traffic: Pick one channel (site sessions, walk-ins, or call counts).
Baseline Conv. Rate (%): What % buys today (orders ÷ traffic × 100).
Expected Lift (%): Relative improvement—e.g., raising CR from 2.0% to 2.2% is a 10% lift, not +0.2 points. The calculator outputs baseline orders, new orders, and incremental revenue so you see dollars, not just percentages. Google Help

How to apply this to your business (3 quick plans)

Plan A — “Credibility sprint” (fastest payback)

Goal: +10% lift in 30 days.
Actions: ask for 20 new reviews, reply to 100% of reviews, update GBP services/photos, add EN/ES FAQ section, and add click-to-call on mobile.
Use the calculator: set lift to 10%; if the incremental revenue beats your cost by 3–5×, ship it. Google HelpBrightLocal

Plan B — “Offer & UX tune-up”

Goal: +5–8% lift in 30–45 days.
Actions: clarify pricing/guarantee, add “book now” micro-offer, simplify checkout/form, reduce fields, surface proof above the fold.
Use calculator scenarios to choose the highest $ per hour improvement.

Plan C — “Bilingual expansion”

Goal: expand addressable + reachable audience and lift CR.
Actions: Spanish ad groups, ES landing pages, ES call routing, and ES GBP posts.
Model a modest 5–10% lift first, then re-measure and update your baseline. Census Data
