Whether you’re a marketer or an ad platform, GBS answers the toughest questions with its namesake — science.

OVERVIEW

Every brand has its own unique measurement challenges and marketing nuances.

While core principles remain universal, applying scientific measurement in business requires flexibility, adaptability, and customization.

That’s why GBS isn’t a measurement SaaS company. In fact, leading measurement and ad platforms turn to us as trusted advisors to help them scale.

Why us?

Growth Powered by Science

As in our name, we use science to help our brands grow. This means we have certain principles we adhere to:

Experimentation must be the foundation of any growth program.
This means actual experiments–test and control.

Modeling (like MMM) is extremely useful–but only if correctly calibrated with an experiment.

Not SaaS. Built for You.

Unlike measurement SaaS platforms, we leverage proprietary tools to design a tailored mix of advanced methodologies that fit your business exactly. No rigid systems, just solutions built around your questions.

SaaS vs. gbs

Measurement SaaS platforms have their place in the market, as do legacy modeling consultancies. GBS fills the gap neither addresses.

Below, we outline differences between a nimble, tech-powered consultancy like GBS versus a top-tier measurement SaaS platform.
