The art of paid media forecasting
Media forecasting is more than predicting trends; it’s about strategic foresight. To craft effective strategies, we use data from previous campaigns and public platforms. Our media planning involves examining various factors:
- History: Understanding seasonality and performance responses to budget and competition changes using historical account data.
- Impression share (budget/ad rank): Analysing Google’s impression share data to forecast performance improvements based on anticipated changes.
- Category-based forecast: Categorising forecasts by brand, competition, generic, and others, recognising different responses to market forces and budget variations.
- Keyword Planner tool: Gaining insights about potential CPCs for new keywords to factor into forecasting using the Keyword Planner tool.
- Incremental CPA: Considering the cost curve and accounting for higher incremental CPA associated with increased spending.
- Experience sharing: Our PPC team shares trends and best practices internally while respecting client confidentiality, refining our forecasting process.
Continuous improvement and accountability
Our media forecasting process includes specific assumptions, and we regularly track actual performance against projections for continuous improvement. Additionally, we:
- Collaborate with platform support teams for keyword volumes, CPCs, and category opportunities.
- Use complementary evaluation tools to understand competitor behaviour and landscape opportunities.
- Draw upon rich insights gained from past Oban campaigns within the same business category.
