RESEARCH REVIEW · Workflow idea

Turn campaign data into questions for the team without overstating what caused a result.

For a team or individual with an authorized purpose, prepare a monthly summary of selected ad metrics and possible tests for a marketing analyst. Campaign metrics may be incomplete, differently attributed, or too small to support a conclusion. Verify dates, filters, definitions, and totals, label hypotheses as such, protect customer-level data, and require an analyst to approve recommendations and recipients before a campaign changes. Use only information the requester may access, explain personal-data use and retention, verify source details and rights, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.
