Mobile and Social Media have Reshaped Consumer Behavior
Mobile and social media allow consumers to interact with a brand like never before. Now, customers enter into an openended relationship with a brand or product, where they cycle around considering, evaluating, and advocating. Many share
their experiences online. The new modeling approaches need to incorporate this type of dynamic behavior.

In Marketing Mix Modeling, Vector Autoregression (VAR) provides a proven tool for explaining the "network" of direct
and indirect effects of paid, owned, earned, and shared media inherent in the consumer decision process.1,2
•
Marketing Response Functions (MRFs) trace the attribution of marketing actions across the dynamic network quantifying
how the evaluate and advocate stages influence repurchase or other potential consumer behavior on an ongoing basis.1
•
Our Conversion Attribution approach addresses the impact and interaction in media impressions across media channels
(or platforms) on sales, using single-source data.3
•
The Cutting Edge Approach models spatial competition within a model of product demand to measure the CategoryLevel Pricing and Assortment impact on sales.4
