- This research addresses two fundamental challenges in Marketing Mix Modeling: the tendency of models to over-attribute influence to high-investment channels and the difficulty in quantifying cross-channel effects. We propose integrating the Michaelis-Menten equation and Maxwell-Boltzmann kinetic theory into hierarchical Bayesian models to overcome these limitations. Our approach uses the Michaelis-Menten model to characterize shape effects with spending-independent parameters and Boltzmann-type equations to systematically quantify cross-channel dynamics. Experimental results show that this physics-inspired approach maintains predictive accuracy while providing superior analytical insights into channel effectiveness and interactions. The normalized Michaelis-Menten constant offers an investment-independent measure of channel efficacy, while the N-particle system simulation reveals previously ignored channel interdependencies, enabling more accurate attribution and informed resource allocation decisions.
