Attribution asks what happened next
Instead of counting testimonials, measure the customer actions that occur after proof is encountered.
Create an event chain
Proof view, click, form start, lead, qualified lead, client, revenue, repeat purchase, and referral can form a measurable sequence.
Avoid false certainty
Attribution can show associations and defined paths, but buyer decisions often have multiple influences.
Compare assets and placements
Use consistent event definitions to identify which proof formats, messages, and locations contribute most often to action.
Feed learning back into the system
Use the evidence to improve what proof is shown, where it appears, and which buyers see it.
