Analytics & tracking consulting (GA4) that makes your numbers trustworthy
We provide analytics & tracking consulting (GA4): we design, repair and document GA4, Google Tag Manager and conversion tracking so you can see which channels produce leads and sales. It suits businesses whose reports disagree or whose ad platforms count conversions nobody can verify.

- Events and conversions mapped to real business outcomes
- Ad platforms, GA4 and CRM reconciled into one version of the truth
- Dashboards and documentation your team can maintain
Data you can argue from
Most tracking problems are invisible until someone asks a hard question. Why does Google Ads report 120 leads while the sales team received far fewer?
Why does GA4 show traffic from a source that never existed? Usually the answer is a duplicate tag, a form that counts page loads as submissions, or a conversion that fires on a thank-you page people can reach directly.
Our consulting begins with what you need to decide: which campaigns to fund, which pages to fix, which suppliers to keep. We then design the minimum set of events that answers those questions and build or repair them. More data is not the goal. Correct data is.
We work with GA4, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Meta Ads, Search Console and CRMs, and have managed more than $20M in ad spend, so we know where the numbers matter most.

Stack and responsibilities
Each tool has one job. Mixing jobs creates errors.
Tool | Job | Common failure |
|---|---|---|
GA4 | Behaviour and conversion reporting | Events named inconsistently |
Google Tag Manager | Tag deployment and event triggers | Duplicate containers on the site |
Google Ads | Bidding on conversion signals | Counting low-value actions as goals |
Meta pixel and Conversions API | Ad optimisation on Meta | Duplicate events without deduplication |
Search Console | Organic query data | Treated as the same as GA4 sessions |
Looker Studio | Shared reporting | Charts built on unvalidated data |
Cost and timeline variables
We scope after reviewing access and site type.
Site platform
WordPress, Shopify, custom builds and single-page apps each need different tagging methods.
Number of conversion types
A single contact form is simpler than a store with checkout, calls, chat and WhatsApp clicks.
Existing mess
Years of duplicate tags and unused properties take longer to unpick.
Systems to connect
Adding a CRM, call tracking or a data warehouse increases the build.
Privacy needs
Multi-market consent rules call for more design and testing.
Cases where this is the wrong first step
Install the basics, and spend effort on getting visitors, perhaps through SEO consulting.
Rules differ by country and change, so verify current requirements for each market and take legal advice where needed.
And if your problem is not measurement but the offer or website experience, look at conversion rate optimization consulting instead.
In that case we begin with a simple lead log and add analytics around it, because a clean spreadsheet beats an elaborate dashboard fed by guesses.
Typical tracking faults we find
A few faults account for most of the wrong numbers we see.
- Double countingA conversion tag fires in both GTM and a plugin, so one lead appears as two.
- Thank-you page misuseVisitors reach the confirmation page directly or by refresh, creating phantom conversions.
- Missing UTM disciplineCampaign links without consistent tags fall into generic buckets.
- Self trafficStaff, developers and agency visits are included in reports.
- Lost cross-domain journeysA checkout or booking tool on another domain breaks the session and credits the wrong source.
- Unfiltered spam trafficBot referrals and fake events distort conversion rates.
Pakistan and international tracking considerations
We set up click events for call and chat buttons, add call tracking where suitable and design a simple way to log which enquiries became sales.
For businesses serving the UK, Europe or other regions with consent rules, we set up consent banners and consent mode so tracking respects user choices, and we explain what data gaps result.
Legal requirements differ and change, so we describe the technical side and advise that you confirm obligations with a qualified adviser.
See our academy guide to setting up conversion tracking in Google Ads for a first look at the concepts.
Event design examples
Event names are agreed in the measurement plan before anything is built.
Business type | Key events | Extra signals |
|---|---|---|
Clinic or service firm | Form submit, call click, WhatsApp click | Appointment booked in CRM |
Online store | Add to cart, begin checkout, purchase | Cash on delivery confirmed |
B2B or export | Quote request, file download | Qualified lead stage |
Publisher or blog | Newsletter signup, scroll depth | Ad impression revenue |
Validating the tracking itself
We test each event with real submissions, compare ad platform conversions with GA4 and CRM entries over a defined period, and set alerts for sudden drops that signal a broken tag.
For example, GA4 sessions will not match Search Console clicks, and we show you why.
Delivery is remote from Lahore with sessions timed for the UK, UAE and US working hours.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers before you get in touch.
Is GA4 accurate?
GA4 is accurate for what it records, but what it records depends on set-up, consent, ad blockers and thresholds. Expect differences from ad platforms and your CRM. Our job is to reduce errors and explain the rest.
Can you fix tracking that is already broken?
Yes. Repair is a common request. We audit what exists, remove duplicates, rebuild what is missing and document the final set-up.
Do you set up Meta Conversions API?
Yes, where it suits the site and the campaign goals. We check deduplication so events are not counted twice. See our academy lesson on Meta Conversions API.
Can you connect leads from WhatsApp or phone calls?
We can track clicks on WhatsApp buttons and call buttons, and link calls through call tracking tools. Matching later sales needs a CRM or a disciplined log.
Will you build dashboards?
Yes, in Looker Studio or the tool you prefer, based on a clear list of questions. Dashboards without agreed definitions create arguments, so we write the definitions first.
Can we also learn to do this ourselves?
Yes. Our marketing training and workshops include analytics sessions. To discuss your set-up, contact us.
