# In short - What is the Impact Score ?

The **Impact Score** is an overall rating from 0 to 100 that summarizes the performance of an advertising campaign. It is a simple yet powerful tool to quickly see if your campaign was **effective and how it compares to other similar campaigns.** Its goal is to help you make decisions and [**optimize your future campaigns.**](/analysis/brand-lift-report/how-to-optimize-my-kpis.md)

## What is it for ?

* **Campaign Summary**: It’s the average performance of all your KPIs vs a benchmark.
* **Easy Comparison:** It allows you to compare different campaigns, regardless of the media or objectives used.
* **Positioning:** It shows where your campaign stands compared to others in your industry.
* **Decision-Making:** It simplifies the choices needed to improve your future campaigns.<br>

## How to interpret it ?

* **0-25:** Very poor performance.
* **25-45:** Below average.
* **45-55**: Average performance (within the norm).
* **55-75:** Good performance.
