“The content purist
will tell you not to
gate any top of
funnel content. I
say gate content if
it has value” Jason Miller LinkedIn
Gating
Content
When gating content
makes sense: 1. business goals
appropriately align
2. content presents
adequate value

Single Touch Attribution Models Multi-Touch Attribution Models
First Touch Last Touch Linear Time Decay Position-based
Can be used in conjunction with a multi-touch model to determine which channels are generating the new opportunities & which are generating influence
Only make sense for products that have no real consideration phase (keep in mind, building the brand is still critically important here)
Useful for efforts designed to deliver continuous influence through the sales cycle
Are best for situations where campaigns are shorter term and designed to drive a specific outcome
Helpful when there’s a heavy emphasis on both brand building and conversion

Looking at source &
influence can help
in optimizing the
media mix
Considerations
• Work with sales to align lead/MQL/SQL definitions
• Select the attribution that makes sense for your goals & your campaign
• Be sure follow-up processes can efficiently differentiate key measurement metrics
