Question · Analytics/Attribution

What is meant by marketing analytics?

Marketing analytics is the discipline of measuring and interpreting marketing performance — attribution (which channel drove which conversion), cohort analysis (how customer segments behave over time), lifetime value modeling, media mix modeling, campaign ROI. The tooling spans Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, Amplitude, Mixpanel, and enterprise attribution platforms like Bizible and Rockerbox. The point is turning marketing spend from an expense into a measurable investment.
