Ad Tracking
Ad tracking and campaign tracking tools that help you prove the ROI of your marketing campaigns.
Ad tracking is more than a measurement tool to communicate the success of your campaign – it’s a critical component of any effective communications strategy. Done right, the information you receive from your advertising tracking system should inform the way forward for future initiatives. We track the effectiveness of your advertising and communications efforts in real-time so you can quickly understand what’s breaking through, what’s working, and adjust messaging as you go to ensure a positive outcome.
Our customizable ad tracking approach incorporates tools from other research disciplines, including Social Listening techniques, to provide helpful contextual clues that explain why people are reacting to your campaign in a certain way. The result is a more complete snapshot of ad effectiveness and overall campaign effectiveness that not only helps you effectively manage your current strategic plan, but informs the next one as well.

Ad Tracking: How Our Approach Is Different
Kelton's advertising tracking process is more than a static performance report – we purposefully design our trackers to move companies forward. With succinct takeaways, added contextual cues, and an eye towards culture and shifts in macro trends, our ad tracking experts create a system that informs strategy and helps you communicate the most critical takeaways from your campaign.
Flexible Tracking Design
Advertising tracking systems that focus on rigid scorecards get stale (and irrelevant) fast. We balance necessary tracking structure with adaptable modules, so you can add timely questions while also keeping track of longer-term trends.
Ad Tracking Plus Context
We supplement tracking survey questions with exploratory open-ends, video diaries, and social media monitoring to give your customers a chance to explain how they really feel, and give you an in-depth view into nuanced responses.
Consumer Trend Watchdogs
We actively look for wider consumer trends that affect brand health, and share this information with our clients. Most recently, our team ran a study to find out which tracking metrics had the biggest influence on brand growth.
Expertise Across Industries and Growth Stages
Every client is unique, and ours range in size from globally recognized industry leaders to category disruptors. We leverage our deep tracking experience to design studies that meet your objectives– both now and as your business expands in the future.
