Multichannel campaign optimization using combinatorial multi-armed bandit experimentation is a powerful, though nascent, alternative to traditional campaign attribution approaches for maximizing marketing ROI. Although performing true multichannel optimization requires significant investment and maturity in data, marketing automation technology and organizational alignment, it’s possible to get started in a more limited fashion by taking an optimization-driven approach in existing channels, and growing from there.

Fortunately there are a few companies which are starting to offer solutions for optimization-driven marketing and can start to help you down this path:
