"Marketers are being told to do more with less, so they retreat to what’s safe and attributable Google, Meta, the tried and true. But attribution doesn’t equal impact. If you’re only investing in channels that show direct ROI, you’re ignoring the way today’s buyers actually behave. You’re not capturing demand, you’re just reporting on what’s easy to track. And that mindset is limiting growth.” Megan Conahan, EVP at Direct Agents Why clinging to traditional platforms is costing you growth — and how to reach today’s real decision-makers.
