Ten Commandments of-Modern Marketing Measurement

What to Stop Doing

Thou shalt not present three dashboards to thy board. One number, reconciled across causal MMM, incrementality testing, and incrementality-adjusted attribution, is the only output that survives a CFO’s second question.

Independent Measurement

Thou shalt not let the entity selling thee media also measure it for thee. Independent measurement, causal MMM and incrementality testing run outside the channels they evaluate, is the only credible answer.

Cause Over Touch
