Analytics

Bad data is not a reporting problem.
It is a budget problem.

When GA4 is misconfigured, when GTM fires duplicate events, when attribution is broken and every platform claims credit for every conversion, the decisions that follow are made on fiction. GA4 setup, tag management, attribution modeling, and dashboards are not nice-to-haves. They are the infrastructure that makes every other marketing investment either defensible or a guess.

This work is for growth-stage marketing teams that have been making decisions on data they cannot fully trust. GA4 properties built in a hurry, GTM containers with conflicting tags, and attribution reports that credit the same conversion to three different channels. The infrastructure that fixes those gaps is what every engagement here produces.

Why analytics infrastructure comes before strategy.

The most common mistake in early-stage marketing is investing in channels before investing in measurement. A company running paid media on Meta and Google without a verified conversion layer in GA4, a clean GTM implementation, and an attribution model that reflects the actual sales cycle is not running performance marketing. It is funding ad platform revenue without being able to confirm that any of it is working.

Analytics infrastructure is not a reporting project. It is the foundation that makes every other marketing investment either defensible or a guess. When GA4 events fire correctly, when conversion data is validated against CRM records, when UTM parameters are consistently captured from click to close, the marketing team has a basis for decisions rather than a collection of metrics that confirm whatever the team already believes.

The five engagements on this page address five distinct layers of the measurement stack, from raw event data collection and tag management through to attribution modelling and executive-level dashboards. Each layer depends on the one below it. A dashboard built on misconfigured GA4 data is not a useful dashboard. A GA4 property without a working GTM implementation is not a complete tracking layer. The correct sequence is data collection first, validation second, attribution third, reporting fourth. That sequence is how every analytics engagement here is structured.

The businesses that get the most from this work have been running paid media for 12 to 18 months and have a dashboard of some kind, but the team does not fully trust the numbers in it. The monthly performance review takes three hours to compile and still leaves the leadership team uncertain about which channels are actually driving revenue. Every analytics engagement here ends with data infrastructure the team can trust and dashboards designed around the specific decisions the team makes each week.

Who the five analytics engagements are right for.

Companies spending on paid media and making channel decisions from platform-reported data that has never been validated against CRM records or finance data. These businesses are optimising campaigns for a metric that may not represent the actual business outcome, and the first step is finding out what the data actually says before any channel decisions are changed.

Marketing teams that have had GA4 for 12 or more months and are not certain whether the events are firing correctly, whether duplicate conversions are inflating the numbers, or whether the conversion events the platform is using for optimisation are the same ones that represent real revenue. The GA4 setup and GTM audit is designed specifically for this situation.

Businesses preparing for a fundraise and needing to produce attribution data that shows investors exactly which channels are generating the pipeline and at what acquisition cost. Investor scrutiny of marketing attribution at Series A and B has increased significantly, and companies that can produce channel-level CAC data from a clean, validated measurement layer are at a significant advantage in those conversations.

Growth-stage marketing leaders who have inherited a measurement setup from a previous team and need to understand, before committing to any reporting strategy, whether the underlying data is trustworthy. The audit is the starting point before any investment in dashboards or reporting infrastructure is made.

How we approach analytics.

Data quality before dashboards.

A dashboard built on bad data is a bad dashboard that updates itself automatically. Every analytics engagement starts with an audit of the underlying data, GA4 events, GTM tags, conversion definitions, and UTM parameters, before anything is built on top of it.

Validation against a source of truth.

GA4 numbers are validated against CRM records and ad platform data before any engagement is signed off. If the numbers do not reconcile, we find out why. We do not consider an implementation complete until the data is trusted by the people who use it.

Attribution that reflects your sales cycle.

A last-click model applied to a 90-day B2B sales cycle makes the bottom of funnel look essential and the rest of marketing invisible. Attribution model design starts with how your customers actually buy, then builds the measurement layer around that reality.

Reporting that drives decisions, not downloads.

Every dashboard we build is designed around the decisions the team makes each week, not around the metrics that happen to be available. Fewer charts, clearer context, and an anomaly response guide so the team knows what to do when a number moves unexpectedly.
