Credit Attribution in Marketing

Credit attribution in marketing refers to determining which marketing efforts or channels (like social media, email, or ads) are responsible for driving a customer’s decision to buy or engage. It's about fairly assigning recognition to each touchpoint in the customer journey, especially when multiple interactions influence the outcome. This helps businesses understand what’s working well and where to invest more resources for better results. Effective credit attribution ensures marketing efforts are evaluated accurately, guiding smarter decisions and optimized strategies.
