How to calculate revenue growth rate
Why revenue growth rate matters for Shopify users
Revenue growth rate is the headline metric for business momentum. Consistent growth signals product-market fit and effective execution, while declining growth rates demand investigation into the underlying drivers.
Shopify merchants can decompose growth into its components - traffic growth, conversion improvement, and AOV changes - to understand which levers are driving or hindering overall revenue expansion.
