Our take
Rockerbox’s marketing attribution platform offers direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands a single access point for analyzing all marketing channels, whether online or offline.
Bringing companies better insight into the efficacy of their marketing is a potential game-changer, given that the DTC industry marketing wastage rate is estimated at at least 50%. Considering that in North America alone, around $300 Billion is spent on marketing and advertising every year, any aid to reduce wastage is extremely valuable.
Rockerbox has been growing at a promising rate since the 2013 inception, winning The New York Times Ad Tech Startup of the Year back in 2018, and gaining some high-level customers in the form of The Wall Street Journal.
Having undertaken a strategic measurement integration with Pinterest in 2022, the company appears intent on continuing its steady scale-up by adding to its remote workforce across the USA and developing more features for its platform.
