How to Use MER as a North Star Metric to Scale Revenue

How to Use MER as a North Star Metric for Profitable Ad Scaling

Update Note: In an era where iOS updates and cookie depreciation have caused massive signal loss for marketers, relying solely on platform-specific ROAS is dangerous. This is why shifting to MER (Marketing Efficiency Ratio) is the most reliable North Star Metric for 2025 and beyond.

Not enough marketing teams spend the time to get aligned with the boss on a north star metric and it wreaks havoc and causes stress...and nobody wants that!

ML Attribution & Consumer Insights: Depesh Mandalia & Wicked Reports

By Scott Desgrosseilliers on Sep 26, 2023 11:30:15 AM

How to Scale Ad ROI Using Machine Learning and Attribution Habits

I recently chatted with Depesh Mandalia from AdSignals about our use of Machine Learning to help our customers to automatically mine their attribution data to find valuable consumer behaviour insights, to generate alerts and weekly recommendations. 

Our system excels at identifying subtle 'Attribution Habits,' such as detecting that customers who engage with a specific blog post and a low-cost Facebook retargeting ad within 7 days have a 45% higher Lifetime Value (LTV) than average. The ML then translates this insight into a weekly recommendation to increase budget on that specific ad set and adjust the blog's Call-to-Action. This level of precision is exactly how Depesh Mandalia was able to see such significant, measurable returns.
