They reveal how the test showed that 40% of paid search spend was cannibalizing organic conversions, saving the company $200,000 annually. The discussion covers the mechanics of holdout groups, the pitfalls of last-click attribution, and why most marketers are wasting budget on ads that simply capture existing demand.
