Read the full article below for detailed insights and actionable strategies.
Stop Burning Cash on Broken Attribution
For too long, eCommerce brands in the Netherlands and across Europe have been forced to rely on outdated, inaccurate marketing attribution models. You spend hundreds of thousands of Euros on advertising, but you're still asking the same fundamental question: what is actually working? Last-click, first-click, and linear models are fundamentally flawed. They don't measure incremental lift; they just assign credit based on arbitrary rules. It's a recipe for wasted spend and stalled growth.
Causality Engine is built on a different foundation: Bayesian causal inference. We don't play guessing games. Our platform analyzes the complex web of interactions in your customer journeys to determine the true causal impact of each marketing channel. We tell you what would have happened if you hadn't run an ad, providing a clear measure of its incremental value. This is the future of [marketing attribution](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q136681891).
The High Cost of Inaction for Dutch eCommerce
Let's be direct. Every day you operate without a causal attribution model, you are losing money. Consider a typical Shopify fashion brand spending €150,000 per month on ads. Our data shows that at least 20% of that spend is often allocated to cannibalistic channels—channels that claim credit for sales that would have happened anyway. That's €30,000 per month, or €360,000 per year, completely wasted.
The formula is simple:
Wasted Spend = Total [Ad Spend](/glossary/ad-spend) * Cannibalization Rate
With Causality Engine, you can identify that waste with near-certainty and reallocate it to channels that drive real, incremental revenue. Our Refinement Queue provides a clear, prioritized list of actions to take to improve your marketing efficiency, today.

Case Study: Dutch Beauty Brand Increases ROAS by 28%
Problem: A fast-growing beauty brand in Rotterdam was struggling to scale their ad spend profitably. Their rule-based attribution tool showed strong performance from their branded search and retargeting campaigns, but overall growth was flat. They suspected they were over-investing in these channels.
Solution: They implemented Causality Engine. Our initial analysis revealed that 40% of the conversions attributed to branded search were cannibalistic. The sales would have occurred organically. Our Cannibalistic Channel Detection feature flagged this immediately.
Results: Following our recommendations in the Refinement Queue, the brand reallocated the budget from branded search to a high-performing top-of-funnel influencer campaign. Within 60 days, their overall incremental ROAS increased by 28%, and they unlocked a new, scalable acquisition channel. They are now expanding into the German market with a clear, data-driven strategy.
