In the context of Multi-Touch Attribution (MTA) models, the feature or step within a script like strongmta.sql is designed to transform raw, event-level marketing data into a structured format suitable for attribution modeling. Core Functions of the "Prepare" Feature

Once the "prepare" feature executes, the output table usually contains: : A unique identifier for the customer. strongmta.sql

: In many MTA workflows, the "prepare" step separates paths that ended in a conversion from those that didn't, allowing the model to analyze "null" paths for more accurate probability calculations [4]. Typical Structure of the Prepared Data

: It standardizes timestamps, user identifiers (UIDs), and channel names across different platforms (e.g., Google Ads, Facebook, Organic Search) to ensure a unified view of the customer journey [1, 3]. : A concatenated string or array of channels (e

: A boolean or integer indicating if the path led to a sale (1 or 0).

Without this preparation step, MTA models cannot handle the high cardinality of raw clickstream data. It ensures that the input is and linearly ordered , which is a prerequisite for calculating the incremental lift of specific marketing channels [3, 5]. : In many MTA workflows, the "prepare" step

: It aggregates individual touchpoints into sequential "paths." This involves grouping all interactions a user had leading up to a specific conversion event [4].
