Strategus Launches SalesLink for Auto: First-of-Its-Kind CTV Attribution Solution Linking Ad Exposure to Real-World Outcomes
SalesLink for Auto enables advertisers to link CTV ad impressions to actual sales activity using compliant, identity-resolved data. Unlike conventional DSP reporting that offers limited, one-size-fits-all analytics, Strategus delivers custom reporting tailored to the KPIs that matter most to the advertiser—whether that's vehicle sales, dealership visits, or high-intent web engagement.
'We're proud to lead the market with an attribution solution that reflects what advertisers actually want to know—not just what the DSP can show,' said Todd Porch, CEO of Strategus. 'SalesLink for Auto provides auto marketers with proof of performance that's actionable, timely, and designed around their business goals.'
The solution is powered by Snowflake's secure data collaboration capabilities and Experian Outcomes™, a powerful measurement solution that combines identity, consumer marketing, and automotive data to quantify real-world results. This enables precise attribution at scale while protecting consumer privacy. Marketers gain near real-time insights into which campaigns are driving meaningful outcomes—like vehicle sales or dealership visits—so they can confidently optimize media strategy and prove performance.
'Our relationship with Strategus is another example of how Experian is more than just a credit bureau. We are committed to helping marketers connect digital advertising to real-world results in a privacy-first way,' said Erik Hjermstad, Vice President of Product, of Experian Automotive. 'Our identity and data assets play a critical role in enabling closed-loop attribution at scale, and we're excited to collaborate with Strategus to bring this capability to CTV advertisers.'
'It's always a challenge to determine which media channels drive traffic and how they convert. The SalesLink tool gives us a way to validate our targeting strategies by geo, audience, and media channel,' said Thomas Manning, Vice President at Star Performance Marketing. 'There are no guarantees in advertising, but the principles of advertising suggest that reaching the right audience, at the right time, with the right message leads to mindshare which translates to market share. SalesLink allows our agency to see how all of this works in one portal.'
'SalesLink bridges the gap between media exposure and real-world action, giving us a strong understanding of how our CTV campaigns prompt consumers to actually take action and make purchases,' said Scott Fanelli, Chief Revenue Officer at Edmunds. 'These insights, grounded in real consumer behavior, help Edmunds deliver even greater value to our dealer partners by making it easier to measure performance and optimize results.'
A recent Tier 2 Honda campaign shows just how effective SalesLink for Auto can be. Using attribution powered by Experian Outcomes™, the campaign drove a 133% lift in vehicle sales compared to the control group—and CTV alone delivered a 237% lift. It also led to a 3871% increase in qualified site visits and a 971% lift in dealership foot traffic. These results show how access to real vehicle purchase data at scale gives marketers the confidence to connect ad spend to business outcomes and make smarter decisions mid-campaign.
SalesLink for Auto builds on Strategus' legacy of innovation in CTV, reinforcing its role as a pioneer in Performance TV—CTV advertising that's measurable, accountable, and designed to drive results, not just reach.
Strategus plans to expand the SalesLink solution to additional verticals, including retail and financial services, giving more marketers access to closed-loop attribution in CTV campaigns—without needing to build a custom tech stack.

Snowflake Stock (SNOW) Melts as Rival Databricks Hits $100B Valuation
Cloud technology firm Snowflake (SNOW) saw its shares melt nearly 1% today as private rival Databricks reached a milestone valuation. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. It was revealed that Databricks is getting close to sealing a new funding round which will value it at $100 billion. That would be over 60% higher than its last round in December. New Funding Databricks did not reveal how much money it is raising, but back in December it hit the $10 billion mark in that funding round. The company was then valued at $62 billion. With the new cash, Databricks is looking to ramp up its AI strategy, expand its suite of AI agents and invest in its new database. It may also look at making more acquisitions in the AI space. 'We're seeing tremendous investor interest because of the momentum behind our AI products, which power the world's largest businesses and AI services,' said Databricks Chief Executive Ali Ghodsi. 'We're thrilled this round is already oversubscribed and to partner with strategic, long-term investors who share our vision for the future of AI.' Databricks recently said it generated $3.7 billion in annualized revenue in July, a growth rate of 50%. The company, which has partnerships with tech giants such as Alphabet (GOOGL) -owned Google and Amazon (AMZN) is expected to IPO at some stage in the future. It could even happen before the end of this year. Databricks had $2.6 billion in revenue in its fiscal year that ended in January, with a net retention rate over 140%. In the first quarter of the new fiscal year, nearly 50 of Databricks' 15,000-plus customers are spending over $10 million annually. Snow Joke Both Databricks and Snowflake sell data analytics and data-management software that runs on cloud-computing platforms. Snowflake has a market cap of $66 billion, so the challenge from a stronger Databricks is obvious. But the opportunity for both firms in an expanding AI field is just as clear. Snowflake's share price has climbed over 28% in the year-to-date and over 50% in the last 12 months – see below. The company also reported a strong start to the year with Q1 product revenue reaching $997 million, a 26% year-over-year increase. Snowflake also added 451 net new customers in Q1, growing 19% year-over-year. What are the Best AI Stocks to Buy Now?
