How to Build a Media Mix Model (MMM) - Ep.2: Using Causal Models (DAGs) in MMM
What’s the secret to building a powerful statistical model? In Episode 2 of How to Build a Media Mix Model (MMM), Tom Vladeck and Antonio Vargas from Recast reveal the importance of causal models and assumptions in MMM.
Learn how to:
- Start with your core assumptions rather than fitting data into a pre-existing model
- Use Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) to map causal relationships
- Balance trade-offs in model estimation for actionable results
Antonio Vargas, Senior Data Scientist at Recast, explains how their proprietary Bayesian model integrates complex assumptions into a robust causal framework for MMM.
Whether you’re using open-source models or building in-house, understanding causal relat...

Great conversation!
15:14 offers a great explanation of why branded search and website visits do not contribute effectively to marketing mix modeling
Yes!
I'd never heard that story about Nike and Apple before. Almost identical situations. Explains so much
Amazing Content
21:27 has some great resources to learn more 32:35 goes over how to create your own DAGs
Very useful information.

Can you share the blogpost referenced at the video’s timestamp 19:30?
Here you go! www.linkedin.com/pulse/more-precision-mmm-experiment-calibration-robyn-from-meta-gufeng-zhou/
Is there anything that can be done for MMM models to better account for upper funnel activities?
Yes! You just need to model the relationships explicitly. You can read more here: getrecast.com/lower-funnel-channels/
Peter Fader's book "The Customer Centricity Playbook" sits proudly on my bookshelf. Thanks for bringing him on!
Love the way you guys aim to simplify MMM in actionable ways
Glad it's helpful!
fantastic 👏
Very good talk, Michael, thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much!!
The positive and negative points presented in the video are very interesting. I signed up for Meridian's early access list to get access to the code. Do you know if Meridian uses the Fourrie transform to give some kind of weight to trend modeling?
Unfortunately no details yet on any of the underlying transformations. Will be very curious to see / hear once the code is released!
I am excited for this! Eagerly waiting for more episodes!
Also offline channels like Tv, Radio, print are mostly used as Awareness campaigns where as meta and google are used for conversion so how do we differentiate these effects?
We'd recommend to treat them the same!
For Online channels like meta, google we have spends and relevant impressions to check if there is any incremental sales. But for Offline channels like radio, flyers, planograms etc we dont track impressions so jn this case how do we know the incremental effect? or is there any factor we took into mmm model?
Impressions can't tell you if there were incremental sales! Just because there was an impression and then the person converted doesn't mean that the impression *caused* the conversion. We generally recommend using marketing *spend* in an MMM
