The Problem

Flying Blind is Expensive.
Guessing is Worse.

If you can't see exactly which ad brought in which customer, you are just guessing. Guessing kills growth.

Attribution Black Hole

"I don't know which ad is working." GA4 says one thing, Facebook says another. You're paralyzed by conflicting data.

Signal Loss

Ad blockers and iOS updates are eating your data. Without server-side tracking, you're missing 20-30% of your conversions.

Fragmented Data

Logging into Facebook, Google, and Shopify separately makes it impossible to see the big picture. Data silos hide the truth about your profitability.

Server-Side Tracking (CAPI)

We implement robust server-side tracking (CAPI) to bypass ad blockers and restore data accuracy to 99%.

Custom Dashboards

Live, visual dashboards in Looker Studio that merge data from Facebook, Google, and Shopify into one single source of truth.

Attribution Modeling

Understand the full customer journey. See which top-of-funnel ads introduce customers, and which ones close them.

Blackbird Labs

For clients with specialized needs, we go beyond standard dashboards. We develop custom web apps and automated spreadsheet tracking systems that fit your exact workflow.

The Clarity Protocol

01

Audit & Fix

Garbage in, garbage out. We audit your GTM, GA4, and Pixel setups to ensure every event is tracking correctly.

02

Visualize

We build custom Looker Studio dashboards that combine data from all your sources into one single source of truth.

03

Act

Data is useless without action. We interpret the numbers to tell you exactly where to cut spend and where to double down.

Data In Action

Common Questions

What platforms do you work with?

We work across Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, Meta, Google Ads, TikTok, Shopify, HubSpot, Klaviyo, Stripe, and Looker Studio. If it produces or consumes data, we can usually connect it.

Do you set up GA4 and Google Tag Manager from scratch?

Yes. We regularly rebuild broken GA4 and GTM setups from the ground up—clean event structures, proper naming conventions, and reliable conversion tracking that actually matches reality.

How accurate can tracking really be with iOS and ad blockers?

Client-side tracking alone is no longer enough. With server-side tracking (CAPI + GTM server), we typically recover 20–30% of lost conversions and achieve ~95–99% data accuracy depending on the stack.

Will this help improve my ad performance?

Indirectly—but significantly. Better data means smarter decisions: cutting waste faster, reallocating spend with confidence, and feeding platforms cleaner conversion signals to improve optimisation.

Is this a one-off setup or ongoing service?

Both. Some clients engage us for a one-time audit and rebuild, others retain us for ongoing analytics, dashboard maintenance, and decision support alongside their growth efforts.

What makes your dashboards different from standard reports?

We don’t report vanity metrics. Our dashboards are built around decision-making—profit, contribution margin, CAC, payback period, attribution paths—not surface-level clicks and impressions.

Can you match ad platform data with real revenue?

Yes. We prioritise revenue-level attribution wherever possible—connecting ad spend to actual sales, leads, or booked appointments instead of relying on platform-reported conversions alone.

How long does implementation usually take?

Most analytics rebuilds take 2–4 weeks depending on complexity. Dashboards often go live earlier, with refinements layered in once clean data starts flowing.

Do you replace my existing agency or internal team?

No. We’re infrastructure and clarity-focused. We often work alongside agencies or internal teams to give them better data, not compete with them.

What happens if we stop working together?

Nothing breaks. Everything is built inside your accounts. You keep full ownership of the data, dashboards, tracking infrastructure, and historical insights.

Stop flying blind.
