Get the CTR up, and ratio down by finding your best converting sponsors... then build traffic.
I have nothing close to your traffic at the moment and still converting, I would try changing sponsors. 750,000 visitors should be making you much more 1K. Also expand what your offering, the visitor will have more choices once at your website.
