Yet measurement practices remain overly dependent on financial outputs such as Return on Investment (ROI), emphasizing short-term gains while overlooking marketing’s strategic and societal value. In an era defined by artificial intelligence, digital acceleration, and economic volatility, such traditional metrics no longer capture marketing’s full impact.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">This paper introduces the AI-Integrated Marketing Measurement Model (AIMM 2.0)—an adaptive, AI-driven framework that redefines marketing effectiveness. AIMM 2.0 integrates Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM), Multi-Touch Attribution (MTA), and Incrementality Testing (IT) within a continuous, intelligent learning system. Guided by the Four “I” Principles—Intelligence, Interpretability, Integration, and Impact, the model positions marketing measurement as a strategic capability that evolves with data, technology, and managerial insight.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">By bridging creative strategy with advanced analytics, AIMM 2.0 transforms marketing from the art of persuasion into the science of sustainable growth. It quantifies marketing’s contribution beyond short-term sales, linking analytical insights to business performance, innovation diffusion, and national economic resilience. AIMM 2.0 thus marks a paradigm shift—elevating marketing measurement from a retrospective financial tool to a forward-looking system of adaptive intelligence and strategic growth.<o:p></o:p></span></p></p></abstract><kwd-group><title>Keywords</title><kwd>AI-Integrated Marketing Measurement (AIMM 2.0)</kwd><kwd> Data Driven Strategy</kwd><kwd> Dynamic Marketing Capabilities</kwd><kwd> Economic Resilience</kwd><kwd> Marketing Accountability </kwd></kwd-group><counts><ref-count count='' /><page-count count='' /></counts></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title></ref-list></back></article>
