Masterclass Wrap Up ✨

🎯 What Marketers Learned at SXSW

ClickZ had the inside track at Fospha’s SXSW Masterclass series, where industry leaders unpacked the biggest challenges — and opportunities — shaping eCommerce in 2025. Here are the top takeaways:

1. The Amazon Measurement Struggle Is Real — But Now Solvable: At the Halo Masterclass, brands shared how they’ve struggled to measure the impact of off-platform ads on Amazon sales — a consistent challenge we’ve heard across the industry. Fospha’s latest research introduced Unified ROAS, a game-changing metric that connects external ad spend with Amazon performance for the very first time.

2. There’s More Headroom on TikTok and Snapchat Than You Think: Sessions with TikTok and Snap experts revealed that there’s still huge untapped potential for brands on these platforms. Full-funnel strategies, creative best practices, and better targeting are key — and data-driven approaches are already driving real results.

3. It's Time to Quantify the Power of Brand-Building: Upper-funnel investment can’t be ignored — but it also needs to be justified. Fospha’s data shows how to connect brand investment with business impact, making brand-building a measurable growth driver rather than a leap of faith.
