Week 5 (ex-May mailing): May suppression mailing stripped from all cells. DM Control and DM+Digital: Week 5 DM leads removed (91 and 31 respectively). Digital Only: all DM spend ($106,709) and all DM leads (52) removed — digital-spend-only basis. Reach and frequency reflect full flight including May delivery.
Weekly lead volume — incremental by source
DM Other Digital / Social (0)

All attributed leads are DM or Other. Zero digital-attributed leads through Week 3. One social-attributed lead appeared in Digital Only Week 3. Attribution expected to build from Week 4.

Spend sourced from main delivery tab for all 17/36 markets. Markets absent from lead tab counted at zero leads. CPL is therefore an upper bound — will decrease as missing lead data is recovered.

DM response rate — the leading indicator
Total response rate through Week 5 — DM Control 0.211% and DM+Digital 0.174% (all leads ÷ cumulative DM pacing denominator). Both cells have declined in parallel as the pacing window broadens, with DM Control consistently running about 1.2× DM+Digital across all five weeks. The stable gap between cells supports like-market parity.
DM response rate trend — DM Control vs DM+Digital
DM Control (baseline) DM+Digital Baseline plan ~0.24%

Week 1 was low (0.030%) as only initial days of response were captured. Rates built significantly through Weeks 2–3 as response accumulated. Both cells trending toward the 0.24% plan — expect continued growth through Week 4–6 as DM response peaks. DM Control running 0.17 ppts ahead of DM+Digital — worth monitoring but within expected range.

Reach % — shared markets (DM+D vs DO, Wk 5 cumulative)
DM+Digital Digital Only

Reach = max HH reached across tactics (lower bound). Digital Only consistently reaches higher % of its smaller HH pool than DM+Digital in the same market.

Reach & frequency — all digital markets (Wk 5 cum.)
MarketCellReach %Avg Freq

Amber = frequency ≥ 40× (using max Digital HH Reached method). DM+Digital: 8 markets. Digital Only: 32 markets. Avg freq: DM+D 43.7×, DO 58.5×. Note: reach figures updated to use max(Digital HH Reached) per market following questions about Digital Unique HH Count field in Wk5 file.

Interpreting Weeks 1–5 (ex-May mailing)
ObservationReadContext
DM Control CPL declining: $749 → $57 (Wk3)ExpectedDM response builds over weeks. Wk1 captured only first few days of response — CPL will continue to trend down through Week 4–6 as all respondents are matched.
DM Control (0.80%) ahead of DM+Digital (0.70%) in RRWatchSmall gap but DM Control is performing slightly better on raw DM response. Could reflect market mix differences rather than a digital displacement effect — too early to conclude.
Zero digital and social leads attributedExpected16 days in. Matchback lag on digital means attributed leads will appear from Week 3 onwards. Social assists are not tracked through matchback at all.
17 markets with frequency ≥ 40×Action neededSeveral markets running very high frequency on a narrow reached pool. With 44 days remaining, these markets risk significant ad fatigue. Flag to agency for frequency capping review.
DM response rates tracking together (0.80% vs 0.70%)Strong signalLike-market selection confirmed working. Both groups responding to DM at comparable rates — any CPL difference that emerges from digital can be attributed to the overlay, not market mix.

DM CPL = DM Control spend ÷ leads. DO CPL = Digital Only spend ÷ leads, same market. Green = digital cheaper than DM.

Supporting Test integrity & tracking reads
Total response rate — all leads ÷ cumulative DM pacing denominator

Both cells must respond to DM at similar rates for the like-market comparison to be valid.

DM Control (0.103%) tracking 1.5× DM+Digital (0.067%) — gap consistent across all weeks

DM+Digital non-DM share rising
54% at Wk3 vs 46% at Wk1 — digital overlay appears to be contributing incrementally.
Absolute lead count is the key metric
Digital Only non-DM share is highest (88%) but absolute non-DM leads are lower.
Digital spend intensity — equal HH exposure

Both digital cells must reach the same spend-per-HH for a valid digital comparison.

DM+Digital $0.150/HH digital · 33.7% reach
Digital Only $0.248/HH digital · 43.0% reach
