The key elements in the companies’ databases are what Alpert describes as “smart codes” — unique product codes for every marketing presentation of an item. The two catalogs may have any number of different product codes for a single SKU, so each way it’s presented can be evaluated separately. “These codes allow us to always know the offer [catalog, e-mail campaign, Web search] and the page where a customer saw the item,” she explains. “This way, even if they don’t give us a source code and they order on the Web, we know exactly what drove the sale, and it feeds all the way down to the square inch.”
