Incremental approach

Incremental approach

MROI = ΔProfit

Cost

Δprofit = Δsales - cost

How much would we sale without any advertisement?

Example: incremental brand effects

Source: IAB

Brand engagement index

In this case measured brand is established one and achieves 29% brand engagement index without any advertisement (control group)

Two other groups were exposed to advertisement (TV or TV+ Internet)

We can conclude that internet builds here an incremental brand engagement of 4%

We can do exactly the same with any marketing metric (e.g. sales)

Total sales = baseline sale + incremental

Lifetime Value of Customer

Example:

the client is in the basket and purchases a phone for PLN699 and a tariff of PLN139 a month

No! It is single transaction value that does not take into account

other revenue streams
