Marketing Mix Modeling
Rockerbox Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) helps brands explore the relationship between marketing investments and other factors and their impact on revenue based on historical data. This statistical method allows brands to make confident budget decisions for the best possible revenue outcome.
What is Marketing Mix Modeling?
Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) uses a "top-down" statistical approach that uses aggregate marketing and revenue data to determine the influence of marketing on sales. Advertisers use MMM to budget across channels and forecast predicted revenue.
Rockerbox's MMM will help answer questions like:
- What is the overall impact of each channel and tactic on sales?
- What is the optimal budget allocation across channels to pursue a specific ROAS target?
- At what spend should I expected to see diminishing returns?
- What is my forecasted ROAS and revenue based on different budgets?
How does MMM differ from MTA
Marketing Mix Modeling is complementary to multi-touch attribution, as both measurement methodologies are well suited to solve different use cases.
Multi-Touch Attribution: a "bottoms-up" approach to measurement, unlocking
- In-channel optimizations and shifts in budget across similar channels
- Overlap of marketing channels on individual user paths
- User level paths to conversion for granular user behavior insights
Marketing Mix Modeling: a "tops down" approach to measurement, unlocking
- Long-term, high-level trends that impact revenue
- Channel and tactic-level budgeting and forecasting
- No limitations on measurement due to privacy (ex GDPR cookie blocking) or tracking methodology
- Visibility into "hard to track" channels like out of home, radio
- Visibility into impact on retail revenue (owned retail, 3rd party retail, Amazon)
