Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Among the advertising shifts seen in the past few years, including across social and search and display marketing, the farthest-reaching may be those due to changes in attribution and measurement. And as sustainable paid media scale has become harder to achieve in certain channels, brands must improve their ability to identify the advertising vehicles that drive contribution, not just attribution. This means they need increased visibility into the drivers of their revenue that’s not only incremental but also maintains profit margins. But this likely will happen on an aggregated basis, rather at an individual-user level. “With less visibility into attributable conversions, brands are moving away from looking at platform attribution as their true north and instead focusing on more holistic metrics like customer acquisition cost (CAC) and incrementality,” says Megan Conahan, EVP at Direct Agents , known for its digital … [Read more...] about What Brands Need To Know: Marketing Measurement And Attribution In 2023

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin It’s common for entrepreneurs to place a lot of importance on business growth. After all, a growing business and an increase in demand for a company’s offerings is a sure sign of success. However, when focusing so much on new growth, leaders often forget the key role that their existing customers play in elevating a company’s position in a market.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin If you’re working with a financial advisor, you’re probably accustomed to meeting with them in-person or via video conference at least once per year. This financial check-up is similar to your annual physical, in that it helps you assess where you are now, how much progress you’ve made over the past 12 months, and the direction you’re headed in. Here are 5 tips for getting the most from your next annual financial check-up. 1. Paint a vivid, detailed description of your financial goals. Communication is key, so express your financial and life goals concretely and as vividly as possible. Clearly state your vision for the future.

Broad statements like “I want to leave money to my kids” just cry out for elaboration. In this case, be specific … [Read more...] about Five Ways To Get The Most From Your 2023 Financial Check-Up

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin The Pentagon has been tracking a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon which flew over sensitive areas in Montana in recent days, apparently the latest of several such incursions. President Biden reportedly proposed that the intruder be shot down , but the Pentagon opposed this action, citing the risk of civilian casualties. In fact, bringing down this type of balloon may be extremely difficult, as it is likely to be highly resistant to the available weapons. It may look fragile, but the sheer size and construction of a stratospheric balloon makes it all but invulnerable. There is also the problem of getting to it. Such balloons ride high in the stratosphere , far above the airliners. They do this to take advantage of the change in wind direction with altitude to steer themselves to where they are needed like sailing ships, then circling above a point of interest. The U.S. military has its own stratospheric spy … [Read more...] about Busting That Chinese Spy Balloon Is Harder Than You Think (Updated: ‘Well That Was Easy’)

That may sound random. But that’s the fundamental point of Revenue Operations. At the highest level, the primary goal of a Revenue Operations leader is to unify and align the operations, systems, and data that support revenue teams along the entire … [Read more...] about Revenue Operations Is The Fastest Growing Job In America.
