We're Australia's leading marketplace for employment. As you can imagine we have a lot of business metrics coming in. While we can attribute visits to lower funnel marketing, you can't get a complete picture of other parts like brand marketing and sponsorships. That's where MMM really helps give you the complete impact of your end-to-end funnel.

Overview

Summary

The article introduces marketing mix modelling (MMM) through a conversation between Mutinex co-founder Matt Farrugia, Kevin Alphonso from SEEK, and Daniel King from Supermetrics. It explores when businesses should adopt MMM, how internal decision-making functions, and demonstrates real-world application at SEEK.

So what is MMM in a nutshell?

MMM is a statistical analysis technique used to measure the impact of various marketing tactics on sales. It analyzes historical data to understand relationships between marketing channels (TV, radio, digital) and subsequent sales outcomes.

MMM helps optimize marketing investments and make better decisions, enabling data-driven actionable insights to improve ROI with granular, real-time decision-making.

When to Adopt MMM

The discussion addresses when businesses should adopt MMM, how internal decision-making processes work around implementation, and the practical benefits and outcomes observed at SEEK — including how the team built executive alignment around the measurement approach before rolling it out across the wider marketing function.
