Google has drastically revamped the Google Analytics platform, transitioning from a session-based to an event-based measurement method. This significant change alters how we analyze marketing data, with some metrics that were previously counted in Universal Analytics potentially not being counted in GA4. Recognizing this gap, we aim to inform others about these changes and, more importantly, guide them on implementing a solution effectively.
If you are setting up your own GA4 account, then you might run into challenges such as:
A correct GA4 configuration ensures a continuous, uninterrupted flow of accurate data to inform your business decisions. If you want to achieve your marketing goals, then you need to understand where you stand and how close you are to each benchmark.
Without accurate and reliable data, you’ll be making decisions based on your gut, while the competition builds its strategies around proven insights and calculated metrics. Partnering with CSP to setup your Google Analytics includes benefits such as:
Using Google Analytics (GA4) effectively requires tailored strategies and considerations based on the specific needs and goals of your industry. There is no one-size-fits-all strategy, and while we always tailor our work to the client’s needs, there are some good rule-of-thumb practices to follow.
Different industries, whether it’s e-commerce, healthcare, finance, retail, or SaaS, each require distinct tracking methods, compliance considerations, and key performance metrics. For instance, while e-commerce may prioritize tracking user journeys and optimizing conversion rates, healthcare focuses on patient interactions and regulatory compliance.
By customizing GA4 strategies that align with the specific challenges and objectives of your industry, you can gain deeper insights and make more informed, data-driven decisions.
Investing in professional Google Analytics setup ensures accurate data collection, custom reporting, and valuable insights into your product’s performance. A properly set up account connects the backend and business data with marketing efforts for a 360-degree view of your business’s performance. This also enables customized goal and conversion tracking so you always have the key information you need at hand and in real-time.
