Summary
Creative split testing and Test and Learn are new measurement solutions that make it easier for businesses to test and optimize campaigns. Creative split testing allows A/B testing of different ad elements like formats, visuals, headlines, and calls to action, with each person seeing only one version for accurate results. This helps identify best practices specific to a business, improving long-term campaign performance and driving greater impact.

AdjustHow mobile app marketers should approach CTV | Adjust
CTV has become performance-ready for app marketers. Recent acquisitions (Fox/Roku, Walmart/Vibe) signal a shift to self-serve, measurable channels. Marketers can reuse existing UA creative instead of producing TV ads. QR codes drive direct response, but halo effects often matter more. Start with small, additive test budgets and measure assists/incrementality to understand true impact. CTV offers a way to find incremental users and diversify beyond paid social.

AdjustTurn incrementality into better budget decisions | Adjust
Incrementality testing complements attribution by quantifying the causal impact of marketing spend. For ad ops decision-makers, key insights: match the metric to the business decision—installs for acquisition, revenue for ROAS. Interpret results by checking incremental effect, statistical significance, and organic cannibalization. Use these to guide budget: increase spend when incrementality is significant and exceeds targets; maintain when stable; reduce or reallocate when lift is low or cannibalization occurs. Never mix metrics from different test types.
MetaPerformance Spotlight: What Your CFO Actually Wants to Hear About Marketing with Common Thread Collective
Marketers must shift from ROAS to incrementality and contribution dollars to win CFO trust. Finance cares about actual P&L impact, not activity. Incrementality tests answer what would happen without ad spend, but results come as ranges, which are more honest than false precision. A testing program builds 'progressive truth' over time. The marketers who get budget show incrementality data, contribution margin impact, and forecast accuracy. The role evolves to profit accountability, with tools like Incremental Attribution and Conversion Lift working together. The key move: propose a controlled experiment to align marketing and finance on a shared measurement framework.
