Data is the cornerstone of decision-making—we all know that. Yet, according to a study done by Forbes and Treasure Data, a staggering 44% of marketing professionals report that disparate data across channels significantly hampers their ability to deliver consistent customer experiences. This fragmentation not only dilutes the effectiveness of marketing campaigns but also clouds the visibility of true performance metrics. At Rockerbox, we believe that the solution lies in the centralization of marketing data.

Data decentralization emerges as a multifaceted challenge. Marketers find themselves juggling an array of platforms, spanning from paid social and organic content to Connected TV (CTV) and direct mail, each yielding its own siloed data. This disjointedness casts a shadow over the attribution process, complicating it to the extent that, according to a 2019 Forrester report, an average of 37% of marketing budgets are squandered due to incomplete understandings of performance.

To put this into context, let’s look at Nutrafol, a valued Rockerbox customer:

Before adopting Rockerbox's sophisticated solutions, Nutrafol likened their previous approach to managing marketing data to navigating with an antiquated engine." Their system was a patchwork of varied data streams, including affiliate metrics, attribution analyses, website interactions, and promotional code redemptions, all operating in isolation. This fragmentation not only obscured their data's clarity but also led to the overestimation of their marketing successes through repeated counting of the same conversions.

Transitioning to Rockerbox revolutionized Nutrafol's data strategy. By integrating their data into a single, accessible repository within their data warehouse and the intuitive Rockerbox interface, Nutrafol crafted a bespoke analytical model. This model not only consolidated their previously fragmented data sources but also eliminated redundant data, thereby streamlining their expenditure forecasting and allocation processes.
