Measure attribution by outcomes, not clicks

In short Because digital attribution keeps shifting, metrics should track actual business impact instead of clicks and other measures of activity.

Mastering digital attribution is like solving a puzzle—except the pieces keep changing shape every second.

Our industry is in constant flux, shifting under our feet.

The key: Focus on outcomes over clicks.

Your Metrics should reflect impact, not just activity.
