Study Notes

Data-Driven Recommendations for Effective Marketing

To maximize performance, advertisers should make data-driven recommendations based on insights anchored to levers like campaign objectives, budget, placement, audience, bid, and creative.
Bid control should be carefully managed to avoid under-delivery in campaigns, and bid caps do not directly control the cost per action seen in reporting.
Advertisers should utilize Meta Pixel or Facebook SDK to pass back purchase values for a more accurate understanding of campaign performance.
Delivery may slow down during the learning phase, but it should stabilize afterward, and costs may be higher initially.
Advertiser controls can be adjusted across campaign objectives, budget, placement, audience, bid, and creative to improve ad performance.
Recommendations for future campaigns should be based on insights and research, considering short-term and long-term impact, cost per action, return on ad spend, brand awareness, and brand equity.
Media budget allocation between different marketing channels (e.g., Meta, Search, Video) and within one channel (e.g., audiences, creative, optimization) should be carefully considered.
Cross-channel and single-channel recommendations can be made using solutions like Cross-Publisher Conversion Lift Attribution and Cross-Channel Brand Lift.
Effective recommendations should be tailored to the unique positions of stakeholders, considering what they should know, feel, and do, and leveraging visuals to inspire emotions.
Iterative measurement opportunities should be identified based on insights, including retesting hypotheses, evaluating new variables for testing, and addressing data blind spots.
New opportunities beyond the measurement approach should be considered, such as isolating effective variables and strategies, measuring cross-channel performance, and broadening audience targeting.
Advertisers should adopt a test-and-learn mindset, repeating tests, using conclusions to inform new tests, and identifying new opportunities for iterative testing based on findings.
