Bonus: Attribution is Dead and What To Do Instead with SegmentStream’s Constantine Yurevich

Subscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signup Hello and welcome to DTC Podcast, I’m Eric Dyck. Today we’re getting controversial with Constantine Yurevich, Founder, CEO, and Chief Hot Taker of SegmentStream, a conversion modeling platform used by companies like L’oreal, OMD, and KitchenAid aims to circumvent the fractured, multi-device customer experience that makes attribution a fool’s errand, through the use of Machine learning that analyzes your website traffic, to predict the conversion value of each visitor in real-time. https://segmentstream.com Constantine declares that attribution is well and truly dead, so instead of trying to Frankenstein a corpse, why not use AI to short-circuit the whole process?
