This talk moves away from the idea of direct marketing attribution and dissects why it's almost impossible, and what we should be doing instead. Learn how to communicate the real world of marketing attribution and move senior leaders into a position where they're looking at the overall revenue results of marketing (e.g. ARR or ROI) rather than individual activity metrics. We’ll offer a stronger, data-driven alternative position that puts marketers back in power and enables you to make quicker and better business decisions.

More Data, Zero Consent: What the UK's New Consent Law Just Unlocked
UK cookie law changed this year, and it quietly handed SEO, analytics and testing teams a legal way to measure without the consent banner in the way.
Nearly everyone still blocks their analytics and testing tools behind a consent choice they don't legally need, losing data on every visitor who says no. Others have misread the changes altogether, putting themselves at risk of the ICO's fines of up to £17.5 million.
Gavin walks you through the changes in practical terms, covering what actually qualifies, what doesn't, and a framework for recovering nearly 100% of your traffic visibility.
