Problem

79% of marketers struggle to interpret and apply data analytics to improve marketing ROAS.

This is due to specialized knowledge requirements and lack of analytical staff.*

As a result, advertisers either forego buying analytics tools or use biased platform data to evaluate ad spend effectiveness.

Solution

Simple, actionable ad analytics

Mint Measure’s ad analytics platform provides easy-to-read charts and pre-analyzed insights so any marketer knows what’s working.

Prescriptive recommendations make optimizations easy and actionable.

We help brands know which ad channels are driving results and how to optimize.

Product

How it works

Mint Measure's tech is placed in each ad platform for a brand, and we monitor ad delivery and actions taken by users.

This data is cleaned and transformed into easy-to-read charts. Insights give context, and recommendations are provided for the client to take action.

Mint Measure’s unfair advantage

We created a new way to process data to deliver 80% of the value of the enterprise solutions at 20% of the cost.

Our unique methodology quantifies what's working and where marketers should allocate ad budgets to drive growth with these proprietary metrics:

  • Incremental reach
  • iCPM - cost of incremental reach
  • Incremental conversions
  • iCPA - cost per incremental conversion
