⚠️  Clients Miss Key Insights Without a Proper GA4 Setup

My Client struggle to get accurate ecommerce insights in Google Analytics 4. Without a complete setup, she is  likely facing:

🚫  Missing revenue data or transactions due to broken or incomplete event setup
🚫  No funnel visibility—can’t track where users drop off in product views, cart, or checkout
🚫  Events not firing correctly across different pages (ViewItem, AddToCart, Purchase, etc.)
🚫  Lack of item-level tracking (e.g. missing item_id, price, quantity, currency)
🚫  Poor integration between ecommerce platform (Shopify, WooCommerce, etc.) and GA4
🚫  No connection between user actions and marketing campaigns for true ROI tracking
🚫  GTM setup not configured to collect full ecommerce schema or user properties

These problems lead to underreporting, poor optimization, and wasted ad spend.

📘 Project Details

The Client has a big data discrepancy with GA4 eCommerce revenue. That has happened because the client has implemented GA4 Client-Side tracking. The Adblockers, Tracking restrictions like ITP, and IOS 14 all affect the accuracy of the data collected about website visitors. The client wants to close match GA4 conversion and revenue with their eCommerce store.
