A/B test

A

A test that allows you to conduct experiments that
compare multiple ad sets by splitting audiences into
randomized and mutually exclusive groups.

Testing multiple campaigns
against one another to see which
tactical approach produces the
best results based on your KPIs.

107
Q

Limitations of A/B Tests

A
  • Does not assess incremental impact.
  • Reliable only if the confidence level is at least 75%.
  • Some A/B tests do not include control groups, only randomized
    test groups. In these cases, they do not measure causality
    or the incremental value of a strategy, and therefore are
    not recommended when strategy A has a different baseline
    conversion rate than strategy B (such as audience).
  • Not all tests are appropriately powered with adequate
    conversion numbers in each group.
108
Q

Randomized control trial (RCT)

A

RCTs test a hypothesis by introducing a treatment,
studying the effects and determining the impact
of your ad. Ultimately, an RCT can help you decide
how much to spend on each marketing channel to
maximize your results. It can infer causality.

109
Q

Limitations of RCT

A

Limitations
* Tests may not be set up with sufficient statistical power.
* The treatment variable may not always be isolated.
* Some tests will have effects beyond initial user interaction.
* They can’t account for the unknown (e.g., people use cash or
make other untraceable purchases).
* Test and control groups might have outliers.
* Outcomes might be difficult to replicate.

110
Q

Observational method

A

A measurement method in marketing research
that observes the effect of ads on people without
changing who is exposed to the ads.

111
Q

Limitations of Observational method

A
  • Not experimental, so causal inferences cannot be made.
  • Difficult to perform strategy comparisons in a controlled way.
  • Might deliver biased outcomes.
  • Does not take into consideration contextual variables that
    may affect the final outcome.
112
Q

Cross-channel reach reporting

A

Measures how channels work together
to generate business outcomes.
Channels include but are not limited
to email, TV, direct mail, Facebook and
paid search.

113
Q

Limitation of Cross-channel reach reporting

A
  • Metrics vary by channel.
  • Cross-channel reach reporting can be challenging,
    because not all channels share touchpoint/reach data.
  • Limitations vary by specific solution. In general,
    limitations arise when metrics are not comparable or likefor-
    like data is not available.
  • Reach does not always correlate with brand and
    conversion business outcomes.
114
Q

Attribution

A

The process of determining credit for
each touchpoint on a consumer’s path to
conversion.
Multi-touch attribution models, or MTAs,
allocate value to more than one touchpoint in
a consumer’s path to conversion. Data-driven
attribution is the process of determining
credit for touchpoints on a conversion path
often based on historical data and statistical
modeling.

115
Q

Attribution Limitations

A
  • Statistical attribution models can be costly to
    access in some cases, while others are limited
    to specific channels.
  • Cross-device limitations on cookie- or webbased
    systems.
  • Many tools do not have access to the full path
    to conversion (for example, in-app impression
    data is often not shared across publishers.)
  • Often only includes digital channels.
116
Q

Marketing mix modeling

A

A data-driven statistical analysis that
quantifies the incremental sales impact and
return on investment of marketing and nonmarketing
activities, measuring both offline
and online sales across channels.

117
Q

Marketing mix modeling Limitations

A
  • Can struggle to capture incremental sales
    where an increase is minimal.
  • Requires collaboration between modelers and
    an econometric model.
  • Doesn’t help with in-channel optimization.
  • Does not infer causality, only correlation.
  • Can be time-intensive to implement.
118
Q

Lift test

A

Use a Lift test to measure incremental outcomes by comparing
the actions of people who have seen your ad with people who haven’t.
Lift tests with
statistically significant results can infer causality and accurately measure incrementality, unlike proxy
metrics, like clicks and likes, which are indirect approximate measurements that may not be correlated
with actual business value and can result in suboptimal business decisions.

119
Q

Single-cell test Lift Test

A

This option is best used to get a baseline understanding of incremental
brand or conversion outcomes your campaign is currently driving.

120
Q

Multi-cell test Lift Test

A

A

In this experimental method, the treatment group for one test is subdivided into a control
group and a secondary testing group. A nested test can help an advertiser to understand the
incremental impact a new strategy has on a strategy that’s already under way.

Q

Facebook Attribution - Strengths

A

Measure the performance
of your ads across channels
(paid vs. organic), publishers
and devices.

journey to purchase.
Choose from two types of
models: rule-based and
statistical-based.
Can be a useful complement
to lift tests.

123
Q

Facebook Attribution - Limitations

A

Since there are a variety of
attribution models, it will take
time and experimentation to
find the one that best fits your
business.

large set of variables on
sales.
Understand what influenced
past sales and predict what
may happen as a result of
future marketing.
Understand how your
marketing activity impacts
sales.

132
Q

Marketing Mix Models - Limitations

A

Requires high-quality data.

much influence each of
your marketing activities
had on sales
An overview of how your
spending in different
channels contributed to
success

134
Q

A/B Test - Strengths

A

Assess the correlation
between different versions of
your ads. Create multiple ad
sets and test them against
each other to see which
tactical approach produces
the best results.
Understand which specific
images, videos, placement,
text and/or call to action
performs best.
Know which combination of
variables (creative, audience,
delivery optimization, product
sets or placement) performs
better at meeting your
business goal.
Understand the best
allocation between full
funnel stages.

135
Q

Ideal time for an A/B Test

A

at least 3 days, but no longer
than 30 days.

136
Q

Single-Touch Attribution Models

A

Single-touch attribution models give credit to only one touchpoint.

137
Q

Multi-Touch Attribution Models

A

Multi-touch attribution models take into account more than one
interaction with a given media channel. They are inclusive of other
models, including even credit, positional and time decay.

138
Q

Lift %

A

Indicates how much your ads increased
the rate at which people converted (as defined
by the conversion events you chose when
you created the test).

139
Q

Confidence

A

percentage that represents how
confident Facebook is that your ads caused
conversion lift.

140
Q

P-value

A

The probability of obtaining test
results at least as extreme as the results
actually observed during the test, assuming
that the null hypothesis is correct. The null
hypothesis is rejected when p < alpha and
not rejected when p > alpha where alpha is
determined by the analyst.

141
Q

R2

A

Also known as the coefficient of
determination, R2 is the proportion of the
variance in the dependent variable that is
predictable from the independent variable(s).
This is typically used when evaluating the
goodness of fit of multiple models to determine
the most accurate model.

142
Q

Total Value

A
143
Q

Budget Pacing

A

The aspect of pacing where we may increase
budget if there’s an opportunity to get many
optimization events with costs aligned with your
bid strategy

144
Q

Bid Pacing

A

The aspect of pacing where we adjust your bid
or which auctions we enter based on how much
budget and time are left for your ad set.

145
Q

Auction Buying

A

Auction buying offers more choice, efficiency and flexibility, with less predictable results.
Ads can be placed across Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and Audience Network

146
Q

Reach and Frequency Buying

A

Reach and frequency buying lets you plan and buy your campaigns in advance,
with predictable ad delivery and more control over your frequency settings.

147
Q

Lowest Cost Bid

A

Select the lowest-cost bid strategy if you want
to spend as much of your budget as possible
without having to keep costs within a specific
amount. With the lowest-cost bidding strategy,
you don’t have a specific cost threshold; you
prioritize spending budget over cost control.
The lowest-cost bid strategy may lead to
more cost fluctuation. For example, if auction
competition decreases, costs may go down. If
auction competition increases, costs may go
up. We will work to get you the most results
available for your ad set.

148
Q

Bid Cap

A

Use this strategy if you want to set a maximum
bid across auctions to limit the bid amount
in every auction and reach as many people
as possible at that bid. This bid strategy
maximizes volume at a specified maximum bid
cost and can increase competitiveness against
other advertisers who are targeting similar
audiences. If you want to control for the cost of
actual results, we recommend the cost-cap bid
strategy.

149
Q

Target Cost

A

If you choose the target-cost bid strategy,
Facebook randomly enters you into auctions
using your full cost control. Some outcomes are
expensive, and some are cheaper. Cost stability
versus cost efficiency is the trade-off when you
use target-cost bidding.

150
Q

Cost Cap

A

Using a cost control with the cost-cap bid
strategy lets Facebook deliver the maximum
number of conversions. The cost provided
is an average amount, which Facebook
tries to stay under by going after the lowest
cost events available. As you spend more
or increase your budget, your average cost
per optimization event might increase. Cost
controls apply to your average cost per
optimization event, so Facebook’s ad delivery
system can pursue opportunities across
auctions at a wider range of costs. Some
optimization events cost more than your cost
control. Over the lifetime of your ad set, your
average cost should be at or below your costcontrol
amount.
