Topic

Whether the number in the report is true.

Attribution, call tracking, conversion setup and reporting. What a number claims, what it can actually see, and how to tell a coverage gap from a genuine zero.

Most marketing arguments are really measurement arguments. Two reports describe the same month and disagree, and whichever one is more flattering tends to win, which is how a budget ends up pointed at the wrong channel for a year. A number is a claim about what somebody counted, and the useful question is always what it can actually see. A platform cannot see a phone call it never received. A pixel cannot see a job that closed six weeks later. A dashboard showing zero looks identical whether nothing happened or nothing was connected. These posts cover attribution, call tracking, conversion setup and reporting: what to instrument, what to stop trusting, and how to tell a coverage gap from a genuine zero before acting on it.
