Brands entering a cluttered industry, or a category where one or two brands control consumers’ headspace, often feel they have a daunting road ahead. Their questions include:

— How do we compete with brands with 10x the budget expenditure?
— If I do manage to get consumers to try our brand, how do we keep them coming back?
In a cookieless world, attribution is old news.
Let’s be honest: Multi-touch attribution (MTA) has always been challenging to pull off. Even before Facebook and Apple walled off their data, there wasn’t enough impression-level data to build an accurate model.

That isn’t always the right recommendation.

On the other hand, you have to provide sufficient education to those decision-makers so they feel comfortable and competent enough to sell the offering to your other target audience: the consumer.
That relationship constitutes what marketers call a business-to-business-to-consumer (B2B2C) model. And that model can be daunting if you don’t have a recipe for success.
