When 3Z, a leading portfolio of exceptional sleep brands like Helix and Leesa, backed by a world-class, vertically integrated manufacturing facility based in Arizona, sought to deepen their understanding of marketing performance and streamline measurement across their organization, they turned to Rockerbox. With multiple brands operating under varied strategies, 3Z needed a solution that could provide granular insights while aligning data across their entire portfolio. This case study details how 3Z leveraged Rockerbox to navigate marketing complexities, validate strategies, and unlock cross-brand opportunities.
The Challenge: Navigating Complexity Across Channels and Brands
3Z’s marketing strategy was built on a sophisticated framework that integrated multiple methodologies, including in-platform analytics and proprietary internal models. However, as the portfolio grew, so did the challenges:
- Fragmented Data: Disparate tools and platforms made it difficult to compare performance across brands.
- Attribution Gaps: Offline channels, such as TV and direct mail, lacked comprehensive tracking.
- Cross-Brand Insights: Identifying shared opportunities and optimizing budgets at scale required a unified view of performance.
The Solution: Rockerbox as the Cornerstone of Unified Measurement
Rockerbox became a critical piece in 3Z’s measurement framework, offering:
- Granular Path-to-Conversion Insights: A clear view of how channels interact and contribute to conversions.
- Customizable Data Integration: Tailored credit allocation and data warehouse integration for precise analysis.
- Offline Conversion Tracking: Bridging the gap between offline and online efforts.
Core Use Cases and Results

With these insights, 3Z optimized campaign strategies to align with actual customer behavior, ensuring every dollar spent was impactful.
2. Harnessing Data Warehouse Integration and Custom Credit Allocation
