Script 9: AdGroup High CPA Outlier
Purpose
Tag AdGroups with CPA much higher than peers in the same Campaign.
To Elaborate
The Python script aims to identify AdGroups within a Campaign that have a Cost Per Conversion (CPA) significantly higher than their peers. It uses a 30-day lookback period, excluding the most recent three days, to calculate the CPA for each AdGroup. The script then compares each AdGroup’s CPA to the average CPA of its peers within the same Campaign. If an AdGroup’s CPA is abnormally high, it is tagged as an outlier.
The key business rules of this script are:
- Use a 30-day lookback period to calculate CPA.
- Exclude the most recent three days to account for conversion lag.
- Only consider AdGroups with spend.
- Calculate the average CPA of each Campaign.
- Tag AdGroups with a CPA much higher than the average CPA of their peers.
Walking Through the Code
- The script starts by defining column constants and importing necessary libraries.
- It prepares the data by filtering it based on the desired date range and selecting relevant columns.
- The script groups the data by Account, Campaign, and Group, and calculates the sum of metrics across dates.
- Rows without cost or conversions are removed from the data.
- The data is indexed by Campaign and additional features such as Cost Per Conversion, ROAS, Conversion Rate, and Average CPC are calculated.
- The script defines functions to find anomalies using the Interquartile Range (IRQ) method.
- Another function is defined to find outliers/anomalies using the IRQ method.
- The script iterates over each Campaign and calls the
find_peer_anomaly
function to identify AdGroups with high CPA compared to their peers. - If outliers are found, they are added to a DataFrame called
df_anomalies
. - The script prepares the output DataFrame by selecting relevant columns from
df_anomalies
. - The output DataFrame is printed.
