How do you measure campaign incrementality with a control group?

The primary estimand is the absolute outcome difference between assigned groups. Relative lift and incremental conversions are secondary transformations with explicit denominator and population.

Direct answer

Estimate campaign ITT and its interval.

The primary estimand is the absolute outcome difference between assigned groups. Relative lift and incremental conversions are secondary transformations with explicit denominator and population.

Model or deliverableITT = p₁ − p₀; lift = (p₁ − p₀)/p₀
