Attribution is the argument that never ends in B2B marketing. Marketing says their campaigns influenced the deal. Sales says they found the account themselves. The CFO says show me a number. And everyone argues about whether last-touch, first-touch, or multi-touch better represents reality.

Multi-touch attribution models distribute revenue credit across the multiple marketing and sales touches that contribute to a B2B conversion. They produce a fractional view of channel impact rather than awarding full credit to a single first or last interaction, which suits B2B journeys that involve dozens of touches across many stakeholders.
