The Reporting Problem
Your team spends hours every month pulling data from different platforms, copying into spreadsheets, formatting charts, and assembling PDFs that take 30 minutes to read and 5 minutes to understand.
GA4 says one thing. Google Ads says another. Social platforms tell a different story. Nobody has the single source of truth because the data lives in 5 different tools with 5 different interfaces.
Standard reports show the same metrics everyone sees. No context, no insights, no story — just raw numbers that raise more questions than they answer.
The report shows what happened. But it never answers the question stakeholders actually care about: what should we do next?
What Most People Get Wrong
The most common reporting mistake is building dashboards that show everything instead of showing what matters. A dashboard with 47 metrics and 12 tabs is not comprehensive — it is unusable. The best dashboards answer 3–5 specific business questions clearly.
“Is our organic traffic growing?” “Which campaigns are generating the best ROI?” “Where are we losing leads in the funnel?” Start with the questions your leadership team actually asks, then build the dashboard that answers them.
What We Build
Organic traffic, keyword rankings, technical health, content performance, backlink growth. Everything your SEO program needs to prove results.

Revenue, average order value, cart abandonment, product performance, customer lifetime value. The metrics that drive ecommerce decisions.
Form submissions, cost per lead, lead quality scoring, pipeline attribution. Track every lead from first touch to closed deal.
Cross-channel roll-up, KPI scorecards, month-over-month trends, ROI summary. One page that tells leadership everything they need to know.
Real-World Impact
A mid-size ecommerce company spent 18 hours per month building performance reports — pulling data from GA4, Google Ads, Meta Ads, and Klaviyo into a spreadsheet, formatting charts, writing commentary, and assembling a PDF for the leadership meeting. The data was always 2–3 days old by the time it was presented.
We built 3 automated dashboards: paid media performance (ROAS by channel and campaign), ecommerce revenue (product-level attribution), and an executive summary (cross-channel KPI scorecard). Monthly reporting time dropped to 30 minutes of reviewing dashboards and adding strategic commentary. Leadership now checks performance whenever they want — not just at monthly meetings.
