From a recent RFP:“For the past several years, <our client> has been challenged by how to measure the sales impact of their online media campaigns. Through the use of <internal systems>, we're able to measure the e-commerce sales associated with banners--both the sales that resulted from a click (click-through) and the sales that resulted from people who merely viewed our banners (view-through). The view-through sales far exceed the click-through sales, which is not surprising when one considers the volume of impressions we deliver, and the low click-trough rates associated with display campaigns. However, this also leads to a fair degree of skepticism….
How many of those purchasers who merely viewed a banner made that purchase because they saw that banner?”

What we’re hearing from marketers
• 19
“I need to know the human reaction to my advertising.” There has to be a
better way…
“I need to minimize my waste.”
“Can I measure advertising beyond impressions and clicks?”
“I need to determine the correct advertising mix.”
“I need more information to make relevant connections to my consumers.”
“I can’t find cost-effective and simple-to-understand tools that allow me to accurately measure my advertising.”
“What is the value of impressions that never get clicked on?”
“Did my campaign help my competition?”
“I need 3rd party validation.”
“Will a social component help my advertising campaign?”

How much did this campaign impact visits to my site over time?
Did the campaign drive an increase in brand-term searches?
Were exposed consumers more likely to visit product-consideration sites?
Which segments were most likely to convert within this audience?
Did my social campaign have an impact?
Did my ad drive consumers to a competitor?

Ad Impact Methodology
Compete identifies all panelists who visited a publisher site and saw designated ads…
…and identifies others who visited the same publisher site during the same timeframe, but never saw a campaign ad…
…enabling precise measurement of behavioral “lift” by comparing the exposed group’s activities (search, site visit, KPI) with the control group’s activities.

Control vs. exposed comparisons create a richer view of ad performance

Implication:Baseline viewthrough rates on retention sites however were the strongest resulting in lower lifts. Exposure to awareness and BT placements were more influential in changing consumer behavior

Takeaway:Visitation to the advertiser site was highly correlated with exposure to display ads; Exposure to retention placements consistently drove the strongest rates of viewthrough at each level of exposure vs. other placements
Action:Determine if the incremental lift achieved at each level of exposure is worth the cost

Takeaway:Awareness, BT and retention placements were most successful at changing shopping behavior post exposure
Implication:Despite similar deltas, Retention placements drove approximately 2X greater rates of activity among exposed consumers vs. all other placements; costs associated with these placements may not be as efficient

What is the ROI for Key Brand Funnel Activities
Despite the higher CPM paid for Retention placements, cost per viewthrough and cost per KPI activity performed was lower than both awareness and retargeting strategies.
BT placements were also success in driving key brand activities at a lower cost vs. all other placements• However BT placements had the lowest average rate of exposure
