Etymologi og opprinnelse
Derived from the adjective 'causal' meaning 'relating to cause' (from Latin 'causa' meaning 'cause') combined with 'impact' from Latin 'impactus' meaning 'a striking against', referring to the effect produced by a cause.

a/b-testing
A/B testing and CausalImpact are connected through their shared goal of measuring the effect of marketing interventions, but they operate at different stages and under different conditions. A/B testing is a controlled experimental approach where users are randomly assigned to variants, allowing direct comparison of outcomes to determine which variant performs better. However, A/B tests require the ability to randomize and control exposure, which is not always feasible in real-world marketing scenarios, especially when campaigns are rolled out broadly or sequentially. CausalImpact, a Bayesian structural time-series modeling approach, complements A/B testing by estimating the causal effect of an intervention using observational time-series data when randomization is impossible or incomplete. It analyzes pre- and post-intervention trends, adjusting for confounding factors and seasonality, to infer the impact of a marketing campaign or digital strategy change. Practically, marketers use A/B testing to validate hypotheses under controlled conditions and then apply CausalImpact to measure the real-world effectiveness of campaigns at scale or after launch, where controlled experiments are impractical. This sequential use allows businesses to both optimize tactics (via A/B testing) and validate overall strategy impact (via CausalImpact), providing a more comprehensive understanding of causal effects in marketing performance measurement.
Account based marketing (ABM)
Account Based Marketing (ABM) focuses on targeting and engaging specific high-value accounts with personalized campaigns, making it critical to measure the direct impact of these targeted efforts on business outcomes. CausalImpact is a statistical tool designed to estimate the causal effect of an intervention on a time series, allowing marketers to isolate the incremental impact of ABM campaigns from other marketing activities and external factors. By applying CausalImpact to ABM, marketers can rigorously quantify how much revenue, pipeline, or engagement lift is attributable specifically to the ABM initiatives, rather than relying on correlation or broad attribution models. This enables data-driven optimization of ABM strategies, budget allocation, and justification of ABM spend to stakeholders by demonstrating clear cause-effect relationships. In practice, after launching an ABM campaign targeting select accounts, marketers can use CausalImpact to analyze pre- and post-campaign metrics (e.g., account engagement, deal velocity, or closed-won revenue) while controlling for confounding variables, thereby validating the effectiveness of their ABM efforts with statistical confidence.
Ad creative
Ad creative represents the actual content and design elements of advertisements—such as visuals, copy, and calls-to-action—that aim to engage target audiences and drive marketing objectives. CausalImpact is a statistical methodology and tool used to estimate the causal effect of an intervention or change by comparing observed outcomes against a counterfactual baseline. In marketing and digital strategy, CausalImpact can be applied to measure the true incremental impact of different ad creatives on key performance indicators (KPIs) like conversions, revenue, or engagement. Specifically, when a new ad creative is launched, CausalImpact analyzes time-series data before and after the launch, controlling for external factors and trends, to isolate how much of the observed change in performance is attributable to the creative itself rather than other variables. This allows marketers to make data-driven decisions about which creatives are genuinely effective, optimize creative strategies, and justify budget allocation. Without such causal inference, marketers risk attributing performance changes to ad creative that may be caused by seasonality, competitor actions, or other marketing activities. Thus, CausalImpact provides a rigorous framework to validate and quantify the effectiveness of ad creatives beyond simple correlation or A/B testing, especially in complex, real-world environments where randomized experiments are not always feasible.

Account executive
An Account Executive (AE) in marketing and digital strategy is responsible for managing client relationships, coordinating campaigns, and demonstrating the impact of marketing initiatives to stakeholders. CausalImpact is a statistical tool used to estimate the causal effect of an intervention (such as a marketing campaign or digital strategy change) on key business metrics by analyzing time series data. The practical connection lies in how an AE can leverage CausalImpact to provide data-driven evidence of campaign effectiveness, enabling them to justify marketing spend, optimize strategies, and build client trust. Specifically, an AE can use CausalImpact analyses to isolate the incremental impact of a campaign from other external factors, thereby delivering clear insights during client reporting and strategic planning. This empowers the AE to move beyond surface-level metrics and present rigorous, causally inferred results, which enhances their consultative role and supports more informed decision-making in marketing and digital strategy execution.
Ad format
In digital marketing, the choice of ad format (such as video, carousel, static image, or interactive ads) directly influences user engagement metrics and conversion behaviors. CausalImpact, a statistical method for estimating the causal effect of an intervention on a time series, can be applied to measure the true incremental impact of deploying a specific ad format on key business outcomes like sales, sign-ups, or website traffic. By using CausalImpact, marketers can isolate the effect of switching or testing different ad formats from other confounding factors (seasonality, market trends, competitor actions) that affect performance metrics. This enables data-driven decisions about which ad formats generate the highest lift in conversions or revenue, optimizing budget allocation and creative strategy. For example, after launching a new video ad format, CausalImpact can quantify how much of the observed increase in conversions is attributable to the ad format change rather than external influences, providing actionable insights to refine digital strategy.
