Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have become increasingly popular for measuring advertising effects. However, when RCTs are infeasible, advertisers—or their measurement partners—may rely on observational methods to estimate ad effects. We present the first large-scale exploration of two popular observational methods by comparing their accuracy with 1,673 large-scale RCTs on Facebook. Despite having a wealth of user-level data, neither method performs well, with median relative error rates between 5X and 11X. We conclude that observational methods for estimating ad effectiveness may not work until advertising platforms log highly granular features (e.g., at the auction-bid level) for modeling purposes.
