Stop waiting on last years’ reports
Knowing how and where to best spend your marketing budget isn’t easy. It is difficult to predict shifting economic conditions, such as inflation, seasonality, a global pandemic, or recession, and how these elements will affect consumer needs and trends.
Historically, marketing and brand leaders have had to look to the past in order to strategize and plan for the future. The old approach to marketing meant relying on your gut and outdated, static, standalone reports to make multi-million-dollar investment decisions. This made forecasting opportunities and selling them to senior management a challenge.
With the industry’s first and only decision optimization engine rooted in predictive analytics, Keen Decision Systems empowers you to plan, adjust, and report on your marketing mix strategy faster—and with more accuracy—replacing the delays and data gaps of the old-school marketing mix modeling (MMM) approach.
This allows you to pinpoint the optimal future investment for each channel on a weekly basis, update your plan at any time to encourage in-flight optimization, and support highly optimized marketing and sales investment decisions.

Drive value that lasts
For nearly a decade, Keen has been transforming how marketing decisions are made, helping marketers like you close the marketing proof gap by tying investment decisions to financial impact. Even when faced with a reduced budget of 17%, one client still saw 3.2% revenue growth + 9.7% revenue profit growth. We saw an average marketing lift of 25% for new clients in year one and an overall profitability of 41% last year for leading consumer brands.
With Keen, you can quickly create multiple marketing-plan scenarios, each aligned with a unique financial goal:
- Maximize profitability
- Achieve a specific revenue target
- Optimize a fixed budget
These scenarios account for both marketing mix and timing, as well as allowing for “constraints,” programs with committed dollars with timing. This helps weigh the risk (probability of achieving results) against the reward (revenue, profit, and cash forecasts) to determine the best approach for your business.
