Measurement Techniques
In this course, we will look at the various techniques used to measure marketing efforts and will focus on how these techniques are applied and tested in order to maximize the impact of your marketing efforts. We first need to grasp what types of analytic tools are available, and will cover tools like marketing mix modeling, programmatic tools, ad servers, web analytics, data management platforms (DMPs) and more. Having many measurement systems can also generate dozens and dozens of statistics and reports, which can lead to analysis paralysis. Thus, we will also discuss what is the important criteria for your organization’s marketing efforts in order to best prioritize what you are measuring and what (and how) you are testing. Once you’ve taken these important steps, you can then make a better decision to develop and implement the right measurement strategy.
This course is the fifth in a six-part series entitled: “Advanced Attribution.” This course can be taken either as a stand-alone course or as part of the series.
