FOR BRANDS
From 8 hours of manual reports
to automated multi-channel analytics
For a subscription service managing complex
trial offers and rapid creative changes across multiple partners, manual
reporting was eating up valuable time and creating accuracy risks.
Freeing up resources with automated,
accurate data
Our client’s marketing team was overwhelmed, we removed over 30 hours a week, merging data from three agencies, each using unique naming conventions across seven advertising platforms. With new offers launching weekly, they needed fast, reliable insights.
Key challenges
- Manual reporting took 8+ hours per week across teams
- New promotional offers launched weekly needed rapid analysis
- Complex conversion logic for multiple subscription types
- Performance data arrived too late to optimise campaigns effectively
- Different agencies reported metrics in conflicting ways
- No single view of performance across all channels
- Campaign & creative naming inconsistencies made granular analysis impossible
Connecting all marketing
& measurement platforms into a bespoke analytics framework
We worked closely with our customer’s team to implement a custom data model tailored to their business objectives. This covered everything from campaign delivery and investment data, to viewability, attribution, tracking subscriptions, complete with KPIs for trials and conversion events.
-
Connected seven major advertising platforms into one system
-
Built custom KPIs for subscription trials and conversions
-
Created specific dimensions for promotional offer tracking
-
Standardised naming conventions across all channels
-
Automated weekly and monthly reporting processes
-
Set up real-time performance dashboards for all stakeholders
From basic tracking to granular performance data
After initial implementation, we uncovered a critical roadblock: inconsistent campaign naming across platforms was limiting performance analysis. The marketing team couldn’t drill down into specific offer types or promotional campaigns. Working closely with the client and their agencies, we developed and rolled out a standardised naming system using our Taxonomy tool.
Campaign performance could now be analysed by subscription type. Trial offer effectiveness became instantly visible. Performance could be compared fairly. Creative performance tracking became automatic. Marketing spend analysis became more precise. Weekly reporting time dropped from 8 hours to 45 minutes.
Built-to-measure solutions

Off-the-shelf tools couldn’t meet this client’s unique requirements, so Bright Analytics built custom solutions to manage their partnership marketing, including tracking both paid placements and value-added agreements. Our Taxonomy tool managed complex naming conventions, while our reporting system tracked subscriber volumes against targets.

Seamless integrations with

reporting headaches. Our client’s marketing team was overwhelmed, spending over 30 hours
weekly across three agencies, each using unique naming conventions across seven advertising platforms.
