I sat down with Barbara Galiza, co-founder of Propel, to unpack why marketing attribution is broken, and what to do about it. We dig into why MMM has a monopoly on budget decisions, why direct mail keeps getting undervalued, and how out-of-box attribution tools miss the context that actually drives business outcomes.
