Cross-channel attribution |
Measuring performance means measuring performance everywhere. Nothing less is acceptable, especially when the customer journey stretches over more than one device and a lot of touchpoints.
Real champion vendors are the ones who can incorporate all online channels (including organic) as well as add offline touchpoints such as TV attribution, call center or direct mails together with digital campaigns. |
Bringing Marketing Mix Modeling with Multitouch Attribution Modeling can provide better answers and optimization to marketers' efforts.
Even though MTA can get you very far and its importance has skyrocketed with the growth of digital marketing, good old MMM can still come in handy. While MMM's strong point remains offline, having a unified model - MMM + MTA can help to shed a light on the entire customer journey. |
Unified Marketing
|
Independence |
Over the last few years several major attribution vendors were acquired by major digital ad players. Which in turn made a lot of clients feel uncomforable with their results. Some even abandoned those providers altogether. When looking for the ultimate source of truth clients are now opting for solutions that are independent of agencies, DSP or adexchanges.

Viewability and
|
Simple math: Ad served ≠ Ad viewed.
Viewability helps to count only impressions that are actually seen by the user. With ad fraud going through the roof, providers who are not able to distinguish between served and viewed impressions are not doing their clients a good service. |
Time is money. Marketers today can‘t wait weeks for the data. They need it within a hand's reach and they need it without delay. Models that are updated automatically to reflect changes happening, allow marketers to make confident decisions based only on the most current data.

We believe, you should be able to work with marketing channels in the same way you are used to work with them, evaluate them or conceptually think about them. Anything else is a compromise at the very least, leading to an inability to take proper optimizing action.
Maybe you don't want to see Adwords but you want to split it into search, Youtube, PLA, DSA and GDN. Mabye you want to go even deeper and see the attribution coefficients for every single campaign in AdWords separately. Or on the other extreme – you want to combine display campaigns from different DSPs into one overarching channel. Luckily Roivenue allows you to define your own channel and what traffic and ads go into it. Be plain sailing. |
