Measure what matters in CPG marketing with Haus and Crisp

When real-time retail data meets incrementality testing, CPG brands can finally measure what’s working and optimize ad spend with confidence.

For consumer goods brands navigating the complex web of omnichannel retail, understanding the true impact of marketing spend can be a significant hurdle. Consumers don’t always buy where an ad suggests – for example, a buyer might learn about your product through an Instagram ad that points to a brand’s DTC site, but the consumer ultimately purchases on Amazon, or maybe even in-store. How would your reporting tell this story? Similarly, a paid Amazon search campaign could happen at the same time as a spike in grocery store sales, but how do you know one directly causes the other?

As a brand’s sales channels and advertising tactics expand, deciding how and where budget is best spent becomes trickier. Measurement platform Haus helps brands identify causation through privacy-safe incrementality testing, enabling them to know what’s working, optimize their media mix, and make more strategic budget decisions.  

Now, through its partnership with Crisp, Haus can leverage real-time POS data analytics, including granular sales and inventory insights at the store and SKU level, into its solution, unlocking a new era of precision measurement for CPGs, and connecting digital media investments to in-store performance with unprecedented clarity.

The retail data equation

Consumer goods manufacturers have traditionally struggled with disparate data across retailers, often trapped in manual spreadsheets and legacy vendor portals. Teams have grappled with aggregating and leveraging these insights daily to inform crucial supply chain and sales decisions – let alone optimize advertising spend across digital platforms like Google, Amazon, and Meta.

Crisp, the leading retail data company, is driving a new era of collaborative commerce between suppliers, retailers, and media-focused organizations by ingesting, normalizing, and structuring readily available data by leading retailers and distributors directly into cloud and BI platforms for effortless operational clarity and decision-making. By eliminating the complexity of fragmented retail data, Crisp enables real-time visibility, AI-ready analytics, and a responsive approach for brands and data teams.

It’s a perfect match for Haus’ advanced econometric models, which help hundreds of category-leading CPGs manage billions of dollars in ad spend. Together, Crisp and Haus bring granular, real-time performance measurement to brands seeking to confidently optimize their media mix.

Incrementality and the future of CPG marketing

Incrementality testing measures the true effect of marketing by determining what would have happened in the absence of an ad, or how changes in tactics – like spend levels – impact business outcomes. Unlike traditional attribution models, in-platform reporting, or other correlative tools, incrementality isolates the impact of an ad by comparing treatment and control groups – helping brands allocate budgets based on hard results.

With real-time, standardized POS data from Crisp, Haus enables brands to precisely pinpoint the incremental lift in retail sales driven by media spend, redefining how CPG enterprises measure ad performance and ensuring marketing dollars fuel tangible growth rather than aimless spending.
