Paid media attribution: knowing what actually works

Multi-touch models, UTM architecture & Meta Ads audit

Most ad platforms claim 100% of conversions. Meta says it drove the sale. Google says it drove the sale. Your email tool says it drove the sale. They're all lying — not maliciously, but by design. Each platform uses last-click within its own window and ignores every touchpoint that happened outside its walls. You need a model that's platform-agnostic.

Key Points

  • Last-click attribution ignores the journey
  • Platform-native attribution is always self-serving
  • The truth lives in your own data warehouse
