Boosting sales by 15% through marketing optimization for a spa franchise

Data-driven marketing optimization to enhance budget efficiency

To solve these challenges, OneSix implemented a data-driven marketing optimization framework, leveraging advanced analytics and automation. Our approach was specifically designed to support a franchise model by providing both high-level and location-specific insights. Key aspects of our solution included:

• Implementing a structured approach that accounts for national-, regional-, and franchise-specific effects on media efficiency and non-media influences.
• Customizing adstocking and saturation functions, with parameters adaptable to specific groups.
• Handling missing data and uneven time series across different franchise locations.
• Incorporating multiple methods for time-based effects analysis.
• Developing an optimization model tailored to the client’s specific needs, including group-specific constraints and budget allocations.

To bring this strategy to life, OneSix deployed a comprehensive suite of solutions:

• Marketing Data Warehouse: Centralized all marketing and adjacent data into a unified data warehouse. Power BI was used to enable real-time, customizable reporting across all franchise levels.
• Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) Pipeline: Implemented an advanced MMM framework to evaluate the impact of various marketing channels on key performance indicators (KPIs), such as sales and customer acquisition. The MMM pipeline provided:

• A structured method to quantify the contribution of each marketing channel.
• Predictive insights to optimize future budget allocations.
• Actionable recommendations to shift spending to high-performing channels.

• Automated Marketing Optimization: Our proprietary MMM tool facilitated continuous, real-time budget optimization by integrating historical performance data, market conditions, and client-specific constraints.
