Campaign measurement and attribution FAQs
How does YouGov conduct campaign validation?
One thing’s for sure: successful campaigns create change. To do this, they need to cut through to resonate and create a response. Have you reached the right people? Do they recall your campaign and brand? Has the message been understood? Did the campaign result in the change you wanted?
YouGov’s research infrastructure and wealth of existing data allow us to create the exact target groups you want to reach. We can track them through your activity and if your campaign changes, you can easily change the profile targets.
Our campaign evaluation starts with YouGov BrandIndex, which tracks your brand and competitor daily. It tracks 16 key metrics, including advertising awareness, buzz, perception measures and purchase funnel metrics. With 15+ years of historical data, you can compare data with past campaigns and benchmark against the competition.
Let’s go deeper and ask why customers are reacting as they are, what’s cutting through and what isn’t, with trigger questions or qualitative AI analysis of audience responses in BrandIndex.
To monitor specific KPIs for your brand, we can help you run a Custom Tracker for an in-depth look at campaign measures to focus on niche audiences. You can also split your sample and measure different executions across platforms, compare the exposed with the non-exposed, and understand whether your campaign is working.
