Creative Eats Targeting in a Privacy-First World

Privacy changes have weakened our ability to target by demographics or affinities. Now Meta's algorithm finds people who connect with your creative - so basically, your creative IS your targeting.
According to Nielsen, creative quality drives a whopping 50% of campaign sales lift — that's five times more impact than targeting. It's the most powerful lever for boosting ad performance.

Bad Marketing Puts Companies Out of Business

Plot showing how marketing can clead to startup failures
By some estimates, over half of startups that go out of business fail because of marketing problems. This includes having trouble refining their product-market fit (34%) or problems with paid marketing (22%).

Experiments Help You Improve Ads

"In our sample, an advertiser that ran 15 experiments (versus none) in a given year sees about a 30% higher ad performance that year."

Frequently Asked Questions

Facebook provides essential A/B testing capabilities, Deciding Data builds on that. We provide test orchestration and more advanced analysis. Our analysis combines the results for many tests and works to uncover the reasons behind ad performance. So you can make more informed decisions and iterate more effectively.

Sadly, No. To understand ad performance, and not just report on it, you need randomized tests setup in particular ways. Without randomized experiments, influences like trends or ad fatigue can strongly bias performance.

We are more Scientist, less Accountant. We don't just want to know what is performing best, we want to know why and what we can do to improve future ads.

Beyond tracking to understanding why
While most creative analytics tools show where users engage with ads, Deciding Data identifies why certain ads outperform others. We identify specific creative features (like "Body Focus" or "NYC Skyline") that drive performance.

We're Scientifically Sound
We use randomized tests to learn the truth, avoiding bias from trends or campaign structure differences that typical analytics miss.

From Question to Creative Direction
Think of us as scientists that translate results to creative lessons. Where creative analtyics tools put together reporting, we give you the creative recipe for success.

Our platform:

- Spots patterns across multiple creative variations
- Identifies actual creative elements and styles in your ads
- Translates performance data into specific creative direction (e.g., "NYC Aspirational aesthetics outperformed Product Focused approaches")

Creates Shared Creative Strategy
Deciding Data helps you focus resources on elements that work. This builds a consistent data-backed creative strategy that is understood across teams and evolves with your audience.

"Statistically significant" means: If we assume these two ads are the same, it's very difficult to explain the difference in performance with random variation alone.

Waiting for "significance" can be wise when change is risky or hard. But with ads, change is easy and often needed. We have to pick something.

Instead of just yes/no answers, we use probabilities. We'll tell you "there's a 77% chance an image with this focus produces the highest ROAS." This helps you:

- Know what to choose
- Understand the strength of evidence in the data
- Incorporate other information in your decisions
