With the advent of the Internet, and more prominently, smartphones, we have newer roles of app developers and Big Data analysts. We even have Zumba and beach-body instructors to help us attain the perfect body type; these job titles did not exist a decade ago. If we observe the trend carefully, it will become evident that newer job titles spring up either due to technological advancements or lifestyle changes. The current decade has been dominated by social media. Facebook has over 1,900 million active users, Instagram has over 600 million and it added over 100 million new users in the last six months (see image below). It is thus obvious that new job titles have cropped up to accommodate this change in technology and lifestyle. People have started to hire social media strategists, social media evangelists, and social media marketers to take care of their social media engagements.

  • Beyond the Last Touch: Attribution in Online Advertising
    Beyond the Last Touch: Attribution in Online Advertising Preliminary Version Current version at: http://ron-berman.com/papers/attribution.pdf Ron Berman1 September 20, 2013 1University of California, Berkeley; Haas School of Business. email: ron [email protected] I would like to thank Zsolt Katona, Ganesh Iyer and Shachar Kariv for their dedicated support during this project. I am also indebted to J. Miguel Villas-Boas, Przemyslaw Jeziorski, Ben Hermalin, Haluk Ergin and participants at the MI 12 conference in Israel for helpful comments. Beyond the Last Touch: Attribution in Online Advertising Abstract Advertisers who run online advertising campaigns often utilize multiple publishers concurrently to deliver ads. In these campaigns advertisers predominantly compensate publishers based on effort (CPM) or performance (CPA) and a process known as Last-Touch attribution. Using an analytical model of an online campaign we show that CPA schemes cause moral-hazard while existence of a baseline conversion rate by consumers may create adverse selection. The analysis identifies two strategies publishers may use in equilibrium { free-riding on other publishers and exploitation of the baseline conversion rate of consumers. Our results show that when no attribution is being used CPM compensation is more beneficial to the advertiser than CPA payment as a result of free-riding on other's efforts. When an attribution process is added to the campaign, it creates a contest between the publishers and as a result has potential to improve the advertiser's profits when no baseline exists. Specifically, we show that last-touch attribution can be beneficial for CPA campaigns when the process is not too accurate or when advertising exhibits concavity in its effects on consumers.
