Attribution and incrementality answer different marketing questions. Attribution assigns conversion credit to recorded touchpoints. Incrementality estimates what additional outcomes occurred because a defined marketing activity ran. A retargeting campaign might receive credit for 400 purchases, while a randomized holdout estimates only 150 additional purchases. The numbers can both be defensible because they describe different things. […]

Your marketing dashboard can look complete and still be wrong. The numbers add up. The charts look clean. But some of your buyers never show up in them at all. That’s the core problem with marketing analytics. It can only report what it can see. Marketing analytics blind spots are the places where real buyer […]

On average, only one in three digital ads is accurately measured for performance. That means two-thirds of your budget could be working or wasting without you even knowing it. It’s not that marketers don’t care about measurement; it’s that most tools stop at surface-level data. They tell you how many people clicked, but not what […]

A customer signs up through an ad, uses a product, and closes a deal weeks later.

You refresh your ad dashboard for the third time today. The clicks look great, but conversions? Almost flat. You’ve tweaked headlines, adjusted budgets, even changed creatives, yet nothing seems to move the needle. The problem isn’t your ads. It’s your data. Ad platforms like Google and Meta can’t see what’s really happening after the click. […]

Incrementality in marketing measures the additional conversions, customers, or revenue caused by a campaign compared with what would have happened without it. A credible comparison, often a randomized treatment and control, estimates the outcomes that would have happened anyway. This is the difference between conversion credit and causal impact. A retargeting campaign might claim 500 […]

You’re spending money on ads. But how much revenue are those ads actually bringing in? Clicks and conversions might look promising, but they don’t always tell you whether your advertising is paying off. That’s where return on ad spend (ROAS) comes in. It tells you how much revenue your ads generate for every dollar spent. […]
