AI sales agent: the ratios that matter

Roughly one in every sixteen conversations ends in a purchase, and each conversation is worth about R54 in chat-linked sales. These ratios show the agent is selling, not just answering questions.

  • Chat-to-sale rate: 6.2%
  • About 1 order for every 16 conversations
  • Average order value via chat: R866.24
  • Sales value per conversation: R53.83
  • Replies per conversation: 0.9
  • Reported bad reply rate: 0.0%

We focus on these ratios rather than totals because they describe how well the agent sells, and they don't depend on how long the campaign has been running.

What these results measure

Sales figures come from orders linked to chat conversations in the agent's dashboard. They are not total store revenue. Google Ads ROAS uses Google's own conversion tracking, so the two sets of figures are measured separately and should not be added together. The 0.0% bad reply rate is a dashboard metric, not a guarantee that every answer is perfect.
