What About Marketshare?
"How do I know that every product in the category didn't just increase in sales in that period, and how do I know they are not just my customers?"
After receiving this feedback, CitrusAd ran a data mining exercise to analyse the impact of marketshare movement of a sponsored product vs several similar (competing) non sponsored products.
In just one month of advertising, not only was a sponsored product able to increase its overall sales by 50% (YoY), but it also acquired more than 5.4% marketshare with of its competitors all dropping marketshare as a result.
