When BRG first started building its affiliate program, their partnerships were heavy on discount deal sites and short on upper-funnel, value-led partners. They also had too little transparency into performance and too much emphasis on vanity metrics. For the last four years BRG has been using Twilio Segment, the leading customer data platform, to provide an easy way to integrate customer data across their business. That made it a no-brainer to put the impact.com partnership management platform in place and start to align their partnerships to their business goals and audience.
The native integration between impact.com and Twilio Segment enabled BRG to have a universal view of their customers across all channels as well as a unified measurement solution. It also offered BRG the most future-proofed tracking configuration via page-load API, which took them only minutes to integrate as opposed to a direct integration which could take weeks. With Twilio Segment and impact.com, BRG gained access to valuable partner insights such as contribution-level data, and cross-device and cross-channel reporting. Most importantly, this advanced tracking solution does not rely on third-party cookies, ensuring that BRG’s tech stack remains compliant and privacy-forward.
