Attribution-Enabled Pay-for-Performance: A Success Story Woody Meachum, Group Director of Digital Strategy, OMD Manu Mathew, Co-Founder & CEO, Visual IQ
Situation • Financial services brand • Multiple online/offline channels • Variety online/offline conversions • Display for top & bottom of funnel • Multiple publishers claiming conversion credit
Challenges • 100% of conversion credit given to last action/channel • Last action-based optimization • Impossible to quantify top-of-funnel tactic contribution • Knew measurement was flawed • Channel spend spread across multiple sources • Dissatisfied with overall ROI
Solution • Performance-based partnership with 9 key display publishers • Gave partial credit for top-of-funnel contribution • Incented publishers to deliver quality inventory • Compensated publishers accordingly
Implementation • Identify data sources for all paid & unpaid media • Standardize to shared KPIs & costs • Normalize data sources into shared format • Configure interface & reports • Review historical data & build model
Making It Work • Convert complex attribution data into simplified output • Daily & weekly performance reporting & compensation • Periodic adjustment of model • Change management at publishers • Change management at agency • Change management at brand
Results • 2012 -- conversions up 18% & CPA down 36% • 2013 – conversions up another 13.4% & CPA down another 34% • 2014 (Y-to-D) – conversions up another 9.8% above 2013 & CPA down another 28.1%
