Chris Daigle sits down with Jeff Greenfield, CEO of Provalytics, to uncover how AI-driven attribution is transforming marketing measurement in the age of privacy.
Jeff shares his journey from building one of the first multi-touch attribution companies to creating Provalytics, a platform built to solve one of marketing’s oldest challenges: “Half of my ad spend is wasted — I just don’t know which half.”
This conversation covers:
• Why clicks mislead, and why impressions still matter
• How AI models real ad impact across multiple channels
• Why Google Analytics and “last-click” thinking are broken
• The balance between consistency and correctness in corporate marketing
• New opportunities in connected TV, influencer marketing, and digital out-of-home
• How small teams can use AI tools like ChatGPT + spreadsheets for attribution insights
Key Insight: Most companies waste 80–90% of their ad spend. With AI attribution, marketers can reclaim budget, reduce stress, and unlock smarter strategies.
