B2B Attribution Modelling

A typical B2B sales cycle involves a very high number of touchpoints and the entire process from prospecting to conversion spans many months. Customers try to gather a lot of information about a company before purchasing and in the process, they go through a variety of marketing channels. The sales cycle is also longer because of the extended purchase cycle that is internal to the customer. In this scenario, companies should better understand conversion and the influence of each marketing channel on lead generation and conversion. Knowledge of which channels the customer is using and the significant touchpoints which influence the customer are vital. Until this is understood, companies may continue to invest in too many marketing channels. Not only does this incur wasteful expenditure, but also it demands time and energy from the management team. B2B Attribution Modelling gives the contribution of each customer touchpoint to the overall revenue. It helps cut down on unnecessary marketing channels and helps you focus on what is actually working.

Leverage Attribution Modelling to Optimize Marketing Strategy and Gain Competitive Advantage

Attribution modelling in B2B results in the following benefits:

Gain insights into customer decision cycles and accordingly align your marketing strategy.

Identify efficient conversion paths by analyzing different customer journeys and comparing key metrics such as the number of leads generated over time and the cost per lead.

Identify and scale down on poorly performing marketing channels for bottom-line savings.

Measure the effectiveness of different campaigns (within each channel) and suitably decipher better performing campaign strategy.

Understanding the B2B Attribution Modelling Scenario

Here’s what makes B2B attribution modelling challenging:

The length of the conversion funnel

The number of interactions and

The combination of online and offline touchpoints

On an average, B2B buyers engage 36 times with their vendors before purchasing and the journey could possibly involve many touchpoints. Capturing these data points accurately and extracting patterns from them is one of the biggest tasks of attribution modelling.

The following is a representation of a typical B2B customer journey comprising the various stages in marketing and sales:

In B2B, unlike in B2C, the person who researches for the product may not be the end user. Today, approximately 7 people are involved in a B2B purchase. They can be of the following types:

Different people from the above list can reach out to the company via any touchpoint.

The journey to conversion is very time-consuming and usually spans many months. The following is a representative image of multiple paths taken by customers in their journey:

The other factor is that interactions could be online as well as offline. For example, a prospective buyer may meet the company’s sales representative at a booth in a trade show, get the brochure and check out the company’s website the next week.

Therefore, B2B marketing attribution involves omnichannel attribution i.e., the integration of online (clickstream data) as well as offline (typically stored in CRM) interaction data.

Tackle Challenges in B2B Marketing Attribution Using Advanced Models

Due to the above-mentioned factors, building an attribution model in B2B is a lot more complicated than it is in B2C. Conventional heuristic models such as the first or last click models, the linear attribution model etc. are not suitable in B2B. The correct class of model is an algorithmic multi-touch model that gives appropriate credit to every piece of content/channel that a prospect interacts with.

When it comes to building custom models for B2B marketing attribution, the Markov Chain model and the Shapley Value model are the most-commonly used.

The main reason is that these models are multi-touch models capable of attributing conversions to multiple touchpoints based on the touchpoints’ actual influence on the conversions with reasonable accuracy. This overcomes the handicap of heuristic models such as the first/last touch models which attribute conversion to just one channel. Also, these models are scalable i.e., they can accommodate a high number of touchpoints which is typically the case with B2B customer journeys.

The Markov Chain Model for B2B Marketing Attribution

The Markov Chain is a random process where a system is modelled as a series of states. At any point in time, the system can transition from one state to another and there is a probability associated with each of these transitions. The different channels that a customer goes through in the marketing and sales stages are the ‘states’ of the Markov Chain model.

In the attribution modelling scenario, the prospect transitions from one marketing/sales channel or stage to another and ultimately converts or does not convert. Using clickstream and CRM data, the probabilities of these transitions and conversion can be calculated, thereby allowing us to apply the Markov Chain model to the scenario.

This model is one of the most-widely used ones for attribution modelling because of its scalability – it is very efficient when being applied to both large as well as small datasets. It also requires very less computing power. Therefore, even if the customer journey involves numerous touchpoints, the performance of the model will not be compromised. It is also much less sensitive to random data.

By integrating CRM data and clickstream data (for offline and online interactions respectively), we first draw a Markov graph which contains all the different paths taken by all customers. Also, these data will give us the number of customers entering and exiting each stage of the sales process. Using these numbers, we can calculate the state transition probabilities.

From the transition probabilities obtained as described above, we can calculate the removal effect of each channel i.e. the difference in the probability of conversion when that channel is removed from the Markov Chain.

The Removal Effect is the conversion contribution of a channel in a particular path. When this measure is aggregated across all paths, we get the overall conversion contribution of each channel.

Removal Effect of Channel (C) = (Probability of conversion with C) – (Probability of conversion without C)

This way, the removal effect of each channel is calculated and the share of conversions is attributed accordingly to the corresponding channel.

By calculating the number of conversions associated with each channel and using the available data on the advertising spend in that channel, we can identify which channel(s) is/are responsible for conversions and calculate the efficiency of each channel by calculating the cost per conversion.

The Shapley Value Model for B2B Marketing Attribution

Consider a game with multiple players. The contribution of each player to the end result of the game will be different. The Shapley Value model equitably distributes payoffs of a game among players who may have unequal contribution to the payoff.

Applying the Shapley Value model to B2B Attribution Modelling, the different marketing channels are considered to be players and the revenue or conversions are considered as the payoffs.

There are distinct advantages while using the Shapley Value model. Certain marketing channels can hurt conversions – this is captured by negative Shapley values. Also, the Shapley Value model is better at detecting click spam i.e., interactions with no incremental effect on conversions.

In the B2B attribution modelling scenario, we consider each marketing channel to be a player and the interactions/pathways between the channels to be coalitions. We also represent the total revenue generated or the total number of conversions as the characteristic function.

We measure the conversion ratio for each channel and coalition i.e., combination of channels. Then we calculate the ‘worth’ of each coalition by summing up the conversion ratios of all the channels in that coalition. Using these ‘worth’ values, we calculate the Shapley Value for each channel as the average of each channel’s marginal contribution.

Adding these average values for all the channels will yield a value of 1 i.e., 100%. Therefore, the Shapley Value for each channel represents that channel’s percentage contribution to the total revenue or the total conversions.

Achieve Measurable Growth by Leveraging Data and Deploying the Right Solution

Though B2B Attribution Modelling is different from that in B2C, by collecting and integrating the necessary data points and using advanced models, we can attribute conversions and revenue to the right marketing channels. These models can be deployed in production and can be automated to run at specified periods of time as required. The biggest advantage of applying an advanced model for B2B attribution is the quantification that it provides. We can view ad expenditure in the context of lead generation and conversions of different marketing channels. Stakeholders can analyze customer journeys, identify the relative importance of each path and build meaningful customer experiences. By gaining insight into customer behaviour and significant touchpoints, they can make better investment decisions.

Attribution models are important for marketers as it helps them understand their customer’s journey, and provide an analysis on the perfect time to invest in marketing campaigns. Hence, they should know which attribution model should be used to track data.

Employ 10 Facebook Ads Features To Boost Output Of Your Budget For Paid Social

Since social media has gained prominence in the life of people, businesses are trying to find ways to tap in to the opportunities to push up the sales. And the platforms are only trying to make it easier for them in a way that they themselves can reap benefits, results of which is introduction of paid social, now flourishing dramatically. Companies are spending around 50% more on social advertising with ad revenues expected to reach $35.90 billionby 2017. No surprise here that Facebook (with Instagram) gets the major chunk of that pie, around two-third of the social ad spend in 2015. They continue to experiment and bring new features to empower their advertising model which attracts more and more business to invest. If you want to make the most of the Facebook ads, know these 10 tips / features to use the platform to meet your marketing goals. Report Analysis The part is treasure trove of the most valuable insights, especially its ‘Breakdown’ section. It tells about things like performance of yourmobile placements (like Instagram placement or mobile news feed placement), regions that are converting (or not converting), the gender your ads are influencing most, etc. Lead Ads Latest often means best, which is also understood by the case of Facebook Lead Ads. It allows advertisers to collect lead data through a form within the Facebook platform, eliminating the need to take the visitor to your landing page of your website. Here’s how to go about it. Have a clear objective of lead generation while creating a new campaign. At advert level, just add a lead form, choosing questions of your liking and addition custom questions if you want. After that, the only thing that remains is the formality of adding ‘Disclaimer’and destination URL, linking ‘Privacy Policy’ page. At this stage, you can customize your form before previewing and actually creating it. (The tool is similar to Twitter Lead Cards) Attribution models Your conversion goal would be different than others, and you need to make changes accordingly. By understanding rules for conversion count with respect to the time taken by the user to interact with your ad, you can work intelligently with the FB attribution model. To change the attribution model, go inside the ‘Manage adverts’ where under ‘Columns’ you can customise columns through the option ‘Customize Columns…’ which ultimately leads to ‘Change Attribution Window’. Lookalike audiences When Facebook imitates the criteria of your current customers or audience to generate similar audience with similarities ininterests, demographics, behaviours and likes, the result is a lookalike audience. But the process is initiated with conversion goals in mind. Instagram placements Instagram if works good for your branding goals, it will make sense to look positively towards Instagram placements that now appear within the Facebook Ads Dashboard since 2015. Ad it’s really easy to do. Just be assured of the performance by testing with smaller budgets. Location options Location targeting can be done very specifically which companies often are not able to take advantage of. What kind of location selection would give you the best response; do you want to target people of a specific city or those who are coming to a specific location routinely in the same city? It is just one example. Work on your own location targeting. Remarketing With the audience segmentation options in Facebook, you can control the pages / domains to include or exclude which lets you pick the remarketing window length. Those buyers who have viewed / purchased / added specific things to their cart can thus be remarketed similar products or accessories. Then there is the option of Dynamic Remarketing, where the ads change depending on their purchase or product viewing. Breakout campaigns by placement Different placements in Facebook mean different performance which you should be watching (being directly related to budget). Placements can very distinctively get translated into mobile v/s desktop, thus breaking your campaign in that manner will make sense, both for manual bidding or FB optimization of clicks. Content communicating with your audience Granular targeting methods allow you to be well informed of the demographics you are addressing and their interest, behaviours, etc. This will help you to come with the content that speaks to your audience as per their need and activities. Multiple creatives and copies Don’t just have single creative and copy to be happy with it. Have as many variants in front of you as you can manage and discuss as to which one has the potential to best click with your target audience.Optimization will be done by the Facebook on the basis of the ad performance as well as your conversion goal. Try ‘Carousel’ for its multiple values stuffed in a single creative and are known to reduce both CPA and CPC. Read the full article
