Why Legacy Measurement Models Miss the Mark

Learn how Causal MMM gives you the truth you need to plan your marketing investments better.

Touch-based Attribution Models

  • Doesn’t account for incrementality

  • Ignores non-digital media and impact of promotions

  • Signal loss due to privacy restrictions

  • Tied to click-based bias & correlation

Lifesight’s Causal Marketing Mix Modeling

  • Measures incrementality using statistical modeling

  • Accounts for all media types & business levers

  • Using aggregate data, privacy-safe by design

  • Estimate incremental marginal ROI

Frequently asked questions

Cross-channel budget setting and next-dollar allocation. It produces response curves and profit-max recommendations you can hand to Finance, then pushes targets to Optimization.

It’s calibrated with real experiments (geo-RCTs / platform lift where appropriate), updates on a frequent cadence (monthly or better), and exposes confidence bands, so plans include ranges—not just point estimates.

Sales/conversions (by market or brand), media delivery/spend by channel/vendor, price/promo, seasonality, and key external drivers. Regional granularity improves curve quality and lets you validate with geo tests.

Yes-curves capture diminishing returns and lag (adstock), so the plan avoids underspend/overspend zones and respects channel momentum.

Significant lift results re-weight priors and tighten the curve’s bands for that channel/market. The change is versioned and visible in the Model Card.

Most teams run monthly refresh (some bi-weekly); drift alerts trigger re-fit when inputs shift (promo depth, pricing, mix).

Yes-MMM works on aggregate signals. We lean on regional variation and experiment reads to stabilize curves in low-granularity channels.
