MeasureCamp is an unconference and one of the things this means is the Session Board starts the day off blank. Anyone can run a session, it can a presentation, a discussion or even a gameshow. When the board is declared open, people claim a timeslot and room by adding their Session card to the board.
You can get more information on Session cards and download a blank version yourself from this page. Sessions can also be submitted in advance from this form, we will publish these online for feedback and print out a copy for the day.

Code and stuff (but still fun)

95% of online businesses measure the efficiency of marketing campaigns using last non-direct click or another position based model in Google Analytics. This approach does not give you an objective picture: not all transactions are being logged, offline is not taken into consideration and neither is mutual campaigns influence on each other. This presentation will introduce a brand new logic of attribution modelling where the value is distributed across traffic sources based on micro conversion and transactions that help visitors move through the sales funnel.
At 2:15pm - 2:45pm in Klipfolio room.

Many of marketers rely on last click attribution. However, more than 95% of customers are not ready to buy during their first visit. What does it mean? You should map their journey from the first contact with your company until conversion happens.
Attribution models are great way to assign a credit to a marketing channel during each touchpoint. However, Heuristic models (the ones that can be found in Google Analytics, too) are not data driven and thus they are not accurate enough. Thankfully, Markov chains can provide us with a more precious evaluation of marketing channels.
In my presentation, I am going to describe the logic behind Markov chains, steps how to perform this analysis using Google Analytics and R, and I will also compare Heuristic models with Markov chain using real-world data.

Multi Dimensional Data Cubes & Demo
Craig Sullivan and Pieter Baecke have been working on a free tool to create muti-segmented dynamic, retrospective funnels possible, even on basic Google Analytics.
We've incorporated some great CRO metric 'cubes' and a funnel generator, all of which is sliced across devices, channels, countries, models of iPhone, Browser etc. With one click, you get a 'Grid' of data and segmented funnel steps that gives you focus.

In WW2 the British had to reinvent the science of photographic reconnaissance and interpretation almost from scratch. By the end of the war, hundreds of analysts were involved. The intelligence provided played a pivotal role in the Allied victory.
There are some amazing parallels between photo recon from the 1940s and digital analytics in the 21st century - in particular the way the work is organised between data collection and analysis, and the way the information flows. I'll talk about these organisational parallels, and also show photos of 70-year-old WMDS!
