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For too long, ecommerce brands in the Netherlands and across Europe have been forced to rely on outdated, inaccurate marketing attribution models.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 flawed. They don't measure incremental lift; they just assign credit based on arbitrary rules.
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. Some of that spend is usually allocated to cannibalistic channels: channels that claim credit for sales that would have happened anyway.
The formula is simple:
Wasted Spend = Total Ad Spend * Cannibalization Rate
A Solution Built for the European Market
Are your German campaigns driving sales in Austria? Is your iDEAL payment option influencing conversion rates for Belgian customers? These are the kinds of complex questions that only causal inference can answer.
