English term or phrase: Size of the Prize
Buenas tardes, estoy traduciendo un manual de marketing y me aparece la siguiente frase: "Analyse the 'size of the prize' that each strategy is worth"

¿Cómo traducirían "size of the prize" en este contexto?

Muchisimas gracias!!!!

Saludos, Pilar

Spanish translation:la magnitud del rédito
Explanation:
"Prize" is being used here in the loosest of senses in reference to the relative material words of two or more different strategies that are being considered. The meaning of the expression is fairly clear in English, and is probably also being used because of the catchy rhyme. But I don't think that a literal translation into Spanish works especially well here.

Explanation:
También podría ser "el volumen", pero sin más contexto me inclino por "el valor" que, entiendo, puede servir para cualquier caso.

  -> Exactamente. Hay otras opciones también: se puede usar “mérito,” “ventaja” o, como sugieres, “beneficio.” Gracias, Jairo.
