Business Impact
2

Minor improvement. Small efficiency gain with limited effect on overall turnover or bottom line.

Feasibility
4

Relatively straightforward. Off-the-shelf tools handle the core task. Implementation is well-understood with good examples to follow.

Data Readiness
3

Moderate data needs. Works with data most businesses hold, but will likely need consolidation, cleaning, or reformatting before use.

Risk Exposure
5

Very low risk. Fully internal use. A person checks everything before it goes further. Worst case is a minor internal inconvenience.

Change Complexity
4

Light people impact. A new tool slots into an existing workflow. Minimal training needed. Most people will adapt quickly.

Things to consider

  • Attribution modelling choices (last-click, first-click, linear, data-driven) significantly affect the output. The AI should apply your agreed model, not invent one.

  • The narrative is most useful when it recommends a decision, not just describes the data. Prompt the AI to conclude with a one-sentence recommendation based on the analysis.

  • Many businesses have attribution data but don't use it to change decisions. Establish what decision the report is supposed to inform before investing in automating the analysis.

  • If your reporting is currently manual and takes one day per week, automating it frees meaningful capacity. But if the report isn't actually used, the value of automating a useless process is close to zero. Fix the decision-making process before automating the reporting.

  • Experiment starter: For one month, export attribution data from all channels into a single spreadsheet and prompt an LLM to produce a structured summary with a one-paragraph channel recommendation. Share with the head of marketing and ask whether it changes any budget allocation decisions. If yes, automate the data pull.
