Do you feel like your ad spend isn’t adding up? What if the data you’ve been relying on is actually misleading you? In this episode, we uncover the dangers of inaccurate attribution models that could be costing you thousands in missed revenue and show you a smarter way to optimize your ads.

Tier 11’s John Moran breaks down how media buyers can fall into the trap of relying on third-party platforms like Triple Whale, which often misreport up to 30% of revenue. He shares real-life case studies of clients who dramatically improved their ad performance by simply questioning their attribution model and switching to more reliable tracking methods. 

If you use the wrong attribution model, you may end up running campaigns based on faulty data—putting your business at risk. Let’s teach you how to avoid these costly pitfalls and ensure your marketing strategy is powered by the most accurate insights available.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
