Every ETF marketer eventually runs into the same frustrating reality: the scoreboard is incomplete.
You can drive awareness, spark interest, and create meaningful engagement, yet still be asked to explain outcomes that happen in places you cannot see. Brokerage platforms, advisor conversations, investment committees, model portfolios. The path is real, but the loop is broken.
In this episode of The BLISS ETF Marketing Podcast: Going Beyond the Ticker, Mike Liwski and Josh Prizer explore what ETF marketers should stop expecting from attribution, what they should start measuring instead, and how belief signals can create a more honest and useful view of performance.
In this episode, we cover:
• Why ETF attribution breaks long before the trade happens
• Why belief is a more useful signal than false precision
• How to think about measurement as a ladder, not a single KPI
• Which actions actually indicate due diligence and growing trust
• How programmatic, search, retargeting, and video each support the investor journey
• Why dashboards only matter if they lead to better decisions
The challenge is not proving every outcome. The challenge is knowing which signals show that trust is building and momentum is moving in the right direction.
