MMM is having a resurgence, but it can still be cumbersome to set up initially and even harder to scale across a large enterprise with multiple products. Hear from Head of Marketing Strategy at Lee Enterprises, Robert Zibell, who is leading the rollout of marketing mix modeling across Lee Enterprise's nearly 350 publications in hundreds of cities across the US at once. You'll also hear from Andrew Grosso, CPO at Pickaxe Foundry, who supported Lee Enterprises in their MMM rollout.

Learn how Lee leverages their understanding of local news and Pickaxe's deep understanding of Marketing Mix Modeling to cost-effectively create custom models that allow for each local publication to combine national insights, while still adjusting to trends (and news events).

Pickaxe has worked with Lee Enterprises on an MMM rollout that takes into consideration all of the elements that affect subscription numbers. Working with Pickaxe, Lee is able to take into account factors like seasonality, pricing, and platform to refine their strategy and grow their base.
