Now you can get a more complete picture of your business performance and potential by benchmarking your Shopify and Google Ads KPIs against similar companies to yours.
The Shopify ecosystem is littered with case studies and clickbait telling you what a “typical” return rate or repeat order rate looks like.Â

It takes just a couple clicks to connect your Shopify store to Varos, and you’ll be joining a group of DTC merchants anonymously crowdsourcing their KPIs with each other.Â

The Google integration lets you drill down in real-time into how you’re doing, both in absolute value and over time, compared to similar companies.Â
Now, with both Google and Facebook benchmarks, you’re one step further to getting the full picture of how you’re doing compared to the market.Â

You can benchmark the following metrics from Google in the dashboard:Â
You can also filter the market KPIs by:
