Measurement & PerformanceEstablish the measurement framework demonstrating value to both advertisers and SVS.
Key measures should include revenue, advertiser participation, renewal rate, campaign performance, consumer engagement, conversion, redemption velocity, incremental activation/sales where measurable, inventory utilization and return on advertiser investment.
Use performance data to continuously refine pricing, inventory, campaign strategy, audience targeting and product development.
