55、eyre also likely to switch between devices when researching and making purchases.Both phenomena mean brands need to coordinate their campaigns across multiple channels and understand the role each touchpoint plays in moving someone closer to a purchase decision.While adding complexity for marketers,

59、sumer Privacy Act(CCPA).Apple(Safari)and Mozilla(Firefox)have significantly curtailed others from tracking customer behavior by eliminating third-party cookies,i.e.,tracking files put on a users computer by companies other than the one operating the site theyre browsing.Google(Chrome)has said it wou
60、ld do something similar,though it is still working to develop viable alternatives to the third-party cookie.More recently,Apple said it would strip URL parameters(often used for tracking and analytics)when a user of its Safari browser shares a link,further diminishing the availability of information

100、GuideOne of the biggest challenges marketers face today is a lack of visibility into so-called walled gardens like Meta,Google,Apple and Amazon.While all of the vendors offering marketing attribution and performance management solutions can ingest data from a variety of online and offline sources,ea
101、ch will have its own integrations.These will likely differ regarding the frequency of updates,reliability and depth and breadth of data ingested.Additionally,vendors may have specialized expertise in certain verticals or marketing channelsRelationships with walled gardens and other data providersOne
102、 of the biggest challenges marketers face today is a lack of visibility into so-called walled gardens like Meta,Google,Apple and Amazon.Each gathers data tied to user accounts in a closed system.MPM vendors establish relationships with these organizations to provide data to their customers.Access to
103、 this data can be significant to the value of a given MPM solution.Advertisers can get attribution data directly from these walled gardens,but the drawback of this approach is that these companies have a vested interest in reporting results that put their offerings in a favorable light.With an MPM p
104、latform,the system can better make sense of the data from these media sellers by looking at it in context with independently gathered conversion data.For example,an MPM platform could deduplicate conversion events,determining how credit should be allocated when multiple media sellers credit themselv
105、es with driving a single conversion.Attribution models employedTo be able to integrate and understand data across multiple channels,vendors typically employ a variety of models beyond traditional first-touch,last-touch or weighted attribution.Increasingly,MMM is incorporated,as well.The more differe
106、nt types of data the solution ingests,the more sophisticated their modeling must be to provide an accurate view of whats happening in marketing campaigns.To avoid the challenges created by privacy regulations and software updates aimed at protecting consumer information,several providers have develo
107、ped their own proprietary attribution models that dont rely on technologies like third-party cookies or personally identifiable information.Some vendors allow users to upload or develop their own models,as well as tweak and combine the built-in options.Data modeling and analysisSome vendors have dev
108、eloped their own proprietary,“unified”models that allow them to synthesize the different types of data gathered from marketing initiatives.Deterministic data actual behavioral information that may be tied to an individual profile is considered the most accurate.However,there are situations when that
109、 level of granularity isnt available and others where merging profiles will speed up the analysis time without negatively impacting results.Reports and visualizationsVendors offer different types of reports and visualizations.They enable marketers to understand the impacts of,and the relationships b
110、etween,their different marketing touchpoints.Since this data is as complex as the campaigns themselves,synthesizing it into easy-to-understand visualizations is a big challenge.How successfully vendors accomplish this task is a measure of their platforms utility.2024 Third Door Media is a Trademark

132、able to identify where you are looking for improvements are all critical pieces of the decision-making process.The following section outlines four steps to help your organization begin that process and choose the solution that is the right fit for your business needs and goals.Step one:Do you need a
133、 marketing attribution and performance management platform?Committing to and implementing an MPM platform has implications for every aspect of your marketing operations and business.To evaluate the suitability of an MPM for your organization,conduct a comprehensive assessment of business needs,staff
134、 capabilities,management support and financial resources.Consider the following questions:How would we use a marketing attribution and performance management platform?What are the first problems that we would use it to solve?How do we currently manage our marketing campaigns?How many and what martec
135、h and adtech systems are employed in executing campaigns?Is one the“master”or dominant system?Are they tied together in any way?How many and what channels do we typically deploy campaigns on?(Depending on the complexity of your campaigns and the length of the typical purchase cycle youre measuring,y
136、ou may not need the advanced capabilities offered by a dedicated marketing attribution and performance management solution.)How do we currently analyze success?Is there a central analytics solution?How flexible is the system?Are we able to arrive at actionable insights?How do we currently determine
137、how much budget is allocated to marketing and how that spend is distributed internally and through media expenditures?Is our organization ready for a marketing attribution and performance management platform and ready to act on the insights gained by such a system?Do we have the staffing to use the
138、tool to its full capacity,or would we need to hire data analysts or train existing employees?Looking at your marketing spend in a more holistic way and allocating it accordingly may not be compatible with a department divided into media-specific silos.It may be necessary to dramatically reconfigure
139、how staff resources are deployed,possibly resulting in a need to eliminate positions or provide training.How will we define and benchmark the success of a marketing attribution and performance management system?One challenge with this type of system is that it requires the commitment of resources th

142、RTECH INTELLIGENCE REPORT:Marketing Attribution&Performance Management:A Marketers GuideStep Two:Identify and contact appropriate vendorsOnce you have determined that a marketing attribution and performance management system makes sense for your business,research individual vendors and their capabil
143、ities by doing the following:Inventory all of your organizations adtech and martech applications and speak with your media buyers and data analysts to ensure they weigh in on what channels you want to prioritize when seeking a partner.Look at your other business management software,such as CRMs and
144、ERPs,to determine if these systems can be integrated with those of potential partners.Speak to your marketing peers at virtual events and in discussion forums to find out who is using which marketing attribution and performance management vendor and why.(Many of the vendors profiled in this report a
145、lso provide whitepapers and interactive tools that can help,and our MarTech website is an invaluable resource.)Narrow your list to those vendors that meet your criteria.Submit your list of the capabilities youve identified and set a timeframe for them to reply.Decide whether or not you need to engag
146、e in a formal RFI/RFP process.This is an individual preference.However,be sure to give the same list of requirements and integrations to each vendor to facilitate comparison.The most effective RFPs only request relevant information and provide ample information about your business and its needs.It s
147、hould reflect high-level strategic goals and key performance indicators(KPIs).For example,list your companys most important KPIs and how you will evaluate the success of your implementation.Include details about timelines and the existing ecosystem of martech and business applications you have deplo
148、yed.When written properly,an RFP will facilitate the evaluation process and ensure that everyone involved on both sides comes to a shared understanding of the purpose,requirements,scope and structure of the intended purchase.From the RFP responses,you should be able to narrow your list down to a sho
149、rt list of solutions that youll want to demo.Step three:Scheduling the demoSet up demos within a relatively short time frame of each other to help make relevant comparisons.Make sure that all potential internal users are on the demo call or in the meeting,and pay attention to the following:How easy
150、is the platform to use?Does the vendor seem to understand our business and our marketing needs?Are they showing us our must-have features?Questions to ask vendors include:4 What platform hosting options are available(SaaS/cloud/on-premise)?4 What are my options in terms of attribution modeling?Is th
151、ere a set-in-stone pre-set formula or can I customize attribution modeling based on my own priorities?4 How do clients typically staff and manage the day-to-day operations of the solution?Do I need dedicated data scientists?What level of expertise is needed to get the full benefit of the system?4 Wh
152、at different kinds of data(e.g.,from online paid media,from website analytics and from offline media or phone calls)are available for integration and for appending?Does the vendor specialize in a particular channel,vertical or campaign objective?4 How does the platform monitor integration successes
153、and/or failures?How does it report on data variances or anomalies?The most effective RFPs only request relevant information and provide ample information about your business and its needs.2024 Third Door Media is a Trademark of Semrush Inc.17 https:/martech.orgMARTECH INTELLIGENCE REPORT:Marketing A

155、?Are your must-have integrations routine and proven,or is this work the vendor will perform after adoption?4 What is the systems approach to integrating with the specific martech and adtech systems that your company uses?(Just because a connector exists doesnt mean it will necessarily work for your
156、organization and how you use that third-party platform.)4 How does the platform employ machine learning for data analytics,such as predicting customer journey trends and modeling scenarios for future budget allocation?4 Does the platform feature real-time or near-real-time connections with execution
157、 systems(e.g.,DMPs,social networks)so that you can act quickly on insights and tweak in-flight campaigns?4 What data security regulations does the platform comply with?What data security certifications does the platform have?4 Is an annual contract required?Or can we trial the solution with a short-
158、term contract?4 Will there be a price increase when I renew next year?If so,will the vendor commit to limits on annual increases?4 What are the additional fees(e.g.,setup costs,add-on features,API,quotas)?4 How long is the onboarding process typically?Will the vendor supply engineers to assist in im

160、vering those costs?4 Will the vendors support team work with us to test new features and assess results?Step four:Check references,negotiate a contractBefore deciding on a particular vendor,take the time to speak with several customer references,preferably individuals in a business similar to yours.
161、The vendor should be able to supply you with references if you cannot identify customers yourself.Use this opportunity to ask any additional questions and learn more about any questions that werent answered during the demo.Make sure the person youve been referred to is a primary platform user and is
162、 utilizing the features that your organization cares about.Consider also asking these basic questions:4 Why did you move to a marketing attribution and performance management platform?4 What are your use cases?What were you using before?4 Why did you select this platform over others?4 Has this platf
163、orm lived up to your expectations?4 How long did the platform take to implement?4 Who was involved in the implementation?4 Are you also using additional tools for data governance,analytics or reporting?4 Were there any surprises that you wish youd known about beforehand?4 Where have you seen the mos
