Google Analytics - Tech Overwhelm = You Can Do It
|
Hi, Reader! If you've ever had the nagging sense that you're doing plenty of marketing but couldn't say for certain what's actually bringing in clients, you're the reason I made this. Google Analytics is where that answer starts. The catch is that most setup tutorials assume you've got a developer on call or a high tolerance for jargon. So I made one that doesn't. It's built specifically for coaches, consultants, and service providers, and if you can copy and paste, you can follow it. I also don't just have you click along blindly. I explain what each choice means as we go, including the privacy settings, so you understand what you're setting up and what you're agreeing to instead of taking someone's word for it. It's a proper walk-through, so settle in with a coffee. The actual setup takes under ten minutes. The rest is me making sure you know what you're doing and why, so you're never just clicking buttons and hoping they're right. In it, we get Google Analytics installed, collecting data, and verified working, plus the handful of setup choices that actually matter for how a service business runs. That includes your landing pages and cart, which is where most tutorials stop. This one is just the setup, turning the tool on. Knowing what it's telling you comes next, and I'll walk you through that in the videos rolling out over the coming weeks.
P.S. If the video helps, like it and tap subscribe while you're there. That's how the next steps in the series find you as they release, and it helps the channel reach more people who've been guessing at their marketing. You can click here to subscribe to my channel.

Hi, Reader!I'm speaking at The AI Newsletter Summit later this month, and I wanted to tell you how my talk is relevant regardless of your feelings on AI use as a whole. Most of the 27 workshops will show you how to use AI to write, plan, and sell with your newsletter (or get started if you don't have one). Mine covers what you need to protect from AI scraping and training without shutting you out of search engines or the AI tools people use to find the things you can help them with. Whether...
Hi, Reader!I've audited a lot of GA4 setups, and almost every one of them has the exact same problem underneath it — and it's never the one you'd expect. I just released a new video walking through the 5 mistakes I find most often when auditing GA4 accounts for coaches and service providers — whether you set it up yourself, or paid someone off a site like Fiverr or Upwork to do it for you. You can watch the full video here. Please feel free to share the video if you found it useful as well....
Hi, Reader!If you installed Google Analytics and just left it, you're not alone. Google Analytics 4 turns itself on the second you finish the install, but it does not turn itself into something that gives you can actually use to make decisions in your business. I've just released a new video covering a quick, 4-settings housekeeping pass for your system based on common things I see missed during client audits. All of them doable in one sitting with zero custom coding or technical work needed...
