At Recast we're on a mission to rid the world of wasted advertising spend. No one method or tool is going to get us there, so as well as our own content, we're sharing the best of what we've read on marketing measurement this week.

It’s so obvious when you think about it, but unfortunately not many people do. Stop treating your organic traffic as if it magically just appears for free: it’s a dangerous mindset.
More coverage of Airbnb’s shift away from performance marketing. Lots reasons to be skeptical because correlation-not-causation but an interesting data point.
