Revenue Attribution & CAC Optimization

Connecting Attribution to Business Outcomes

Instead of simple last-click CAC, calculate the true cost based on each channel's attributed contribution to conversions.

Budget Optimization Framework
  • • Reallocate budget to channels with lowest attributed CAC
  • • Identify high-assist channels that support conversion
  • • Optimize creative and messaging for multi-touch journey
  • • Scale channels with best LTV:CAC ratios
