With the rise of advanced measurement solutions, the increased use of digital marketing, and the availability of granular, user-level data, it is easier than ever to track direct response marketing results.

It isn’t easy being the CMO in any company. While each wave of marketing innovation creates new capabilities and possibilities for interacting with audiences, the same tide also brings a longer and more complicated list of expectations for proving the impact on the business. And nowhere is this paradox better illustrated than in the world of performance measurement.

The Wall's WallBlog April 6, 2016

Unlike direct response, branding metrics aren’t inherently baked into programs since they often don’t elicit an easily identifiable “conversion” response – such as a sale or a lead. Instead, marketers are tasked with measuring “engagement” activities, such as video views, landing page visits and whitepaper downloads, which don’t directly correlate to a conversion activity.
Yet it’s no longer enough for marketers to report that the outcome of a major marketing initiative…

Data privacy is back in the limelight, following the announcement of ‘Privacy Shield’ (the new agreement created to replace ‘Safe Harbour’), which obligates US companies using European personal data to guarantee adherence to privacy laws. This announcement comes just months after the initial draft of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), governing the use of EU citizens’ data.

But with the increasing adoption of this broader scope of content marketing as a strategy by many brands, and the associated larger budgets and dedicated teams within/outside their marketing organizations, the need to accurately measure the impact that this strategy has on the bottom line becomes even more important.

Some brave, innovative marketers have stubbed their toes as they dipped them in the waters of attribution. They’ve engaged with emerging – rather than established – vendors, who have either not set the appropriate expectations as to what’s involved in successfully implementing an attribution solution, or – frighteningly – are actually unaware of what’s involved themselves because they are still learning on a client-by-client basis. Many vendors in the space are making their 101-level mistakes…

Much like making music, marketers need all of their channels to work in concert to maximize the quality of their performance. But in order to gain insight into this performance, the data from every marketing channel must be read from the same sheet of music.

We've all heard the old question asking if a tree falling in the forest actually makes a sound when there's no one around to hear it. The same question essentially exists when it comes to whether an ad impression actually reflects a user "viewing" the ad or not. And most attribution systems, not to mention ad servers, blindly count an impression as an impression, period. But it's important to understand that your goal should not be to know whether the ad was actually viewed, but to learn how…

And most attribution systems, not to mention ad servers, blindly count an impression as an impression, period. But it's important to understand that your goal should not be to know whether the ad was actually viewed, but to learn how much, if any, impact the ad had on a conversion. And in this, there is a scientific way to measure that impact.
