Google Analytics (GA) has long been the backbone of every digital marketers’ tech stack but it can't tell you everything. GA only provides insights on individual visits, not accounts or companies, leaving B2B marketers without a full picture of how their marketing efforts are impacting revenue. This is where our Google Analytics Connector comes in to transform your Google Analytics into a B2B marketing tool.
Our Connector seamlessly integrates with Google Analytics to show company level data as custom dimensions, including company name, website, industry revenue, and more.
By expanding traditional Google Analytics reports with B2B data, you’re able to:
Identify the exact campaigns driving valuable companies
Tie revenue back to your marketing activities
Reveal the companies that read your blog, click on your ads, or engage with your brand awareness campaigns
Prove the true ROI of your marketing activities by tying marketing sourced and influenced revenue back to related marketing campaigns and investment
Gain insight into which PPC campaigns are driving your ideal customers and how they are engaging with your website
This article walks you through how to find your Leadfeeder app data in your Google Analytics account, including examples of interesting reports you can gather.
Please note: To be able to use your Google Analytics Connector, please check you have either a trial subscription, or you have a paid Dealfront subscription for our Leadfeeder solution. You will need to have the Leadfeeder Tracker installed on your website. You will also need Editor or Administrator access to the Google Analytics account you wish to use.
