Nothing to move at this budget: TV — Broadcast is the only channel we can measure.
The planner only moves money between channels whose return it can measure. With one of them and the same total, there is nowhere for the money to go — change the total below to see what more or less on TV — Broadcast would do. Every other channel's reason is under its row in the plan below.
Where the money moves
$0 reallocated · 0% of the budget · total unchanged at $31.8M
If you’d rather not move that much
Push a channel far past anything you have actually spent on it and we are guessing rather than measuring. A tighter cap gives up some of the gain and buys a plan that survives contact with the agency contracts.
Or change the total, not just the shape
100% · $31.8MLeave it at 100% to shuffle the money you already spend. Push it up and the planner will show you where the extra stops paying — it solves against the curves, so it cannot promise a ceiling the data does not reach.
Takes the biggest number on offer and ignores how badly it could go.
No odds to report
A plan that leaves your spend where it is can neither beat what you do today nor lose to it, so there are no odds to show. They come back as soon as the planner has something it can move.
Channels this plan will not touch
Paid Social, Paid Search, Programmatic Display, Affiliate, Retail Media are pinned at current spend and greyed in the ribbon above.
When we hid known returns in your own spend, the setup we chose could not find these channels' own returns, so the plan leaves them where they are. Each one's reason, in full, is under its row in the plan below.
Nothing here moved, so the cap you set made no difference to this plan.
What you walk into the meeting with
A spend table your finance team can paste, with the odds, the cap and the withheld channels written into the top of the file. The caveats travel with it — they are not an appendix, and they are not something the person who opens it has to remember to ask for.
