Exposure profile optimization

Abstract:

An online system determines how presenting an awareness campaign to a user will affect the user's likelihood of converting to a related direct response campaign. For the user, the online system creates a benchmark exposure profile representing the user's exposure history before the awareness campaign. Similarly, the online system determines the user's simulated exposure profile, which represents the user's brand exposure history after having been exposed to the awareness campaign. A response prediction for the direct response campaign is determined for the benchmark exposure profile and the simulated exposure profile. The online system estimates the difference between the response prediction and the simulated response prediction to determine a delivery control value of presenting the awareness campaign to a user. The delivery control value is used to determine an effective impression value for the awareness campaign and conversion value for the related direct response campaign.
