Attribution for Fragrance Brands
Marketing fragrance online is a unique challenge. How do you sell a product that is all about scent without being able to smell it? This is the central question that fragrance brands have to answer in the digital age. It requires a creative and innovative approach to marketing, as well as a sophisticated approach to marketing attribution.
Translating Scent to Screen
Successful fragrance brands have found creative ways to translate the sensory experience of their products into the digital world. This often involves a mix of storytelling, visual imagery, and influencer marketing. These activities are designed to evoke emotion and create a sense of desire. However, it can be difficult to measure the ROI of these activities. Traditional attribution models often fail to capture the impact of top-of-funnel brand building on bottom-of-funnel sales.
