Conversion Tracking Setup

Tracking you can make decisions from, audited, rebuilt and documented.
Conversion Tracking Setup
When GA4, Shopify and your ad platforms each report a different number of orders, every decision built on them is a guess.

Service Overview:

‍

A test is only as good as the data counting it. We've seen a test called a loss when the variant wasn't reaching shoppers reliably. Before we test anything, we check that orders, events and variants are counted correctly.

‍

Every engagement starts with a tracking audit. We quote the rebuild from what the audit finds, so you approve one number at a time.

Signs You Need This:

‍

  • Mismatched orders: purchases in GA4 don't match your Shopify orders.
  • Inflated conversions: Ads Manager reports more conversions than you had orders.
  • Mystery tags: nobody on the team knows which tags are in Tag Manager or why.
  • Shifting test results: a result changes depending on which report you open.
  • Blended customers: you can't split subscription from one-time orders.

First, we find where visitors drop off.

We learn your business, your customers and your numbers, then look at your analytics, your tracking and how real shoppers use the site.

Then we turn findings into a plan.

Findings become a roadmap: what to fix, build or test first, ranked by impact, confidence and effort. We sketch and design each change, and you approve it before any work starts.

Then we test it on real traffic.

New ideas go to part of your traffic first. Everyone else sees them once the results hold up. Every month you get a report on what won, what lost and what's next.

We measure what changed, report back in plain language, and document the work so your team can keep it running. Each result shapes what comes next.
