Your AI programs are running. Do you know if they're working? This audit covers AI attribution, output quality governance, AEO visibility across ChatGPT and Perplexity, and ROI modeling for autonomous marketing systems. Research shows nearly 90% of organizations deploying AI in marketing have no measurement framework. That gap is the opportunity.
Search analytics beyond Google — measuring how AI engines including ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews discover, cite, and recommend your brand.
Power BI, Domo, and GA4 implementations with CMO-ready storytelling — including AI program performance dashboards that translate agent activity into board-level decisions.
Senior analytics leadership on retainer — reporting to the CMO, owning measurement strategy, guiding technology decisions, and developing internal teams. Without the full-time hire.
Pricing is scoped to the engagement — not fixed to a rate card. Every conversation starts with understanding the problem. Numbers follow from there. What's shown here is where engagements typically begin.
Three global regions. Four disconnected marketing platforms. Zero shared definition of what a conversion even meant. The CMO was walking into board meetings with numbers that marketing, finance, and sales all disputed — because each team was pulling from a different system with a different methodology. The fix required more than technology. It required building a single measurement architecture that every region agreed to operate within — standardized UTM taxonomy, unified event tracking, and an integrated data pipeline connecting GA4, Marketo, Google Marketing Platform, and Cvent for the first time. When it was done, the CMO had one number. Everyone trusted it.
A Fortune 50 technology company was spending over $1 billion annually on marketing across 40+ global markets with no consistent way to measure whether any of it was working. Different markets used different metrics. Different agencies reported different numbers. Leadership had no reliable view of global performance — and no framework to connect spend to outcomes. Starting with a small embedded team, built a full-service global analytics practice from the ground up — establishing standardized KPIs, a global data taxonomy, a unified performance reporting system, and an audience strategy integrated into planning and buying platforms. The organization went from arguing about data to making decisions with it.
Sales wasn't following up on marketing leads — not because they were lazy, but because the leads weren't trustworthy. Marketing was passing anything that filled out a form. Sales had learned to ignore the queue. The underlying problem was structural: there was no shared definition of what a qualified lead actually meant, no behavioral scoring logic, and no integration between what people did on the website and how they were being prioritized in the CRM. Designed a lead scoring algorithm from scratch — combining GA4 behavioral signals with Marketo engagement data — and defined, for the first time, exactly what constituted an MQL versus an SQL. Implemented in production. Sales started working the leads.
The ABM program existed on paper. Budget was allocated. Campaigns were running. But when leadership asked whether it was working, nobody could answer. There was no account-level reporting, no territory performance view, no way to connect marketing activity to pipeline movement. The measurement infrastructure simply didn't exist. Built it from scratch — account and territory-level performance reporting, pipeline influence attribution, and intent signal integration. Also led the formal evaluation of DemandBase and 6Sense, assessing platform fit, integration requirements, and projected ROI to inform what would become a major technology investment decision.
Consumer brands don't have the luxury of long sales cycles or clean CRM data. They have millions of touchpoints, fragmented media, and boards demanding proof that the marketing budget is working. Across engagements with several of America's most recognized consumer brands, the work spanned the full spectrum of B2C measurement challenges — building multi-touch attribution models using VisualIQ to connect media investment to sales, developing Marketing Mix Models that gave leadership a statistically defensible view of channel contribution to revenue, driving media optimization across complex multi-brand portfolios, and building competitive intelligence dashboard systems that turned reactive monitoring into a strategic advantage.
Open Road Analytics is a premium marketing analytics consulting practice based in Wyckoff, New Jersey. SVP-level experience across Fortune 50 technology, global financial services, and leading B2B and B2C consumer brands. Engagements start at $25,000.
A fractional marketing analytics consultant builds the measurement infrastructure that connects marketing activity to revenue — KPI frameworks, attribution models, data pipelines, dashboards, and technology strategy — without the cost of a full-time hire. At the senior level this means embedding into the organization as an outsourced Head of Marketing Analytics, reporting directly to the CMO, and owning strategy, reporting, and team development on a retainer basis.
A Marketing Analytics Audit from Open Road Analytics starts at $25,000 — fixed fee, no hourly billing, 6-week engagement. The audit covers 7 areas including measurement architecture, attribution, data infrastructure, reporting, technology stack, team and process, and AI/AEO readiness. Deliverables include a written findings report, gap analysis, 90-day roadmap, tech stack recommendations, and a CMO-ready executive presentation deck.
Both. Open Road Analytics has deep experience serving major B2C consumer brands across attribution modeling, marketing mix modeling, media optimization, and competitive intelligence — as well as B2B organizations including global financial services and Fortune 50 technology companies. The breadth across both disciplines is rare and a genuine differentiator.
ABM analytics measures whether account-based marketing programs are actually influencing pipeline — territory and account-level performance reporting, attribution, intent signal integration, and lead scoring. Without it, B2B marketing teams spend significant budget on account targeting with no visibility into what's driving revenue. Open Road Analytics has built enterprise ABM measurement systems including lead scoring algorithm design and formal evaluation of DemandBase and 6Sense.
By building KPI frameworks, attribution models, and governance standards specifically for AI-driven programs — demand gen agents, content automation, AI-powered media buying. Open Road Analytics also measures AEO: how often and accurately your brand appears in AI search engine responses from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Most organizations have no baseline for either. That's where the Agentic AI Performance Audit begins.
Based in Wyckoff, New Jersey — serving the NJ/NYC metro corridor including Bergen, Morris, Essex, and Hudson Counties. Remote engagements are available nationwide for B2B, B2C, financial services, and technology organizations.
A 30-minute conversation is all it takes to know if there's a fit.
No pitch. A direct discussion about what's broken and whether I can fix it.
