Position One, strategic marketing and consulting

Analytics & tracking

Analytics and tracking that show where every lead and sale came from.

We set up GA4, Tag Manager, conversion tracking and call tracking, and send closed sales back to the ad platforms, so every lead and sale reports to one place with its source. You keep every account.

How your campaigns are built and improved.

  1. 01

    Define your target audience

    We start with who actually buys from you — location, age, income, interests, intent and past customers — and build audiences that match, so budget isn't spent on people who will never convert.

  2. 02

    Build messaging and creative

    We write the offer and headlines and produce the images and video for each platform, with several versions ready so we can learn which angle wins.

  3. 03

    Set up conversion tracking

    Before a dollar is spent we install and test tracking for calls, forms, bookings and sales, so every result can be traced to the ad, keyword and audience that produced it.

  4. 04

    Launch your campaigns

    Campaigns go live on the channels agreed in your plan, with budgets, schedules and locations set. The first weeks are a learning phase while the platforms gather data.

  5. 05

    Optimize and refine based on data

    We cut audiences, keywords and placements that waste money and move budget toward what brings in leads and sales, based on real tracked results — not guesses.

  6. 06

    Keep testing creative and following trends

    Ads wear out. We keep testing new creative, offers and formats, watch platform changes and seasonal trends, and report what we changed and why.

How Google really ranks

  1. Adcompetitor-a.com#1

    Competitor A

    $14 bid × quality 4/10 × relevancy 3/10

  2. Adcompetitor-b.com#2

    Competitor B

    $10 bid × quality 6/10 × relevancy 5/10

  3. Adyourbusiness.com#3

    You, with Position One

    $8 bid × quality 9/10 × relevancy 9/10

  4. Adcompetitor-c.com#4

    Competitor C

    $6 bid × quality 5/10 × relevancy 6/10

Rank = bid × quality × relevancy

A better ad and landing page raises quality and relevancy, so you can win the top slot while paying less per click.

Microtargeting: from everyone to your buyerSample
  1. Adults in the metro3,400,000
  2. Within 10 miles of you620,000
  3. Homeowners, income $100k+148,000
  4. Showed buying intent this month21,400
  5. Your target audience6,800

Every dollar goes to the last row, not the first. Homeowners 30–55 within 5 miles.

Problems we fix

Problems we fix.

  • Your platforms report different totals.

    We check definitions, attribution settings, and duplicate events, then document the differences.

  • Phone inquiries are missing from reports.

    We configure suitable call-tracking tools and reporting.

  • You count form submissions but not qualified leads.

    We connect available sales-stage information to marketing reports.

  • Your analytics setup is unclear.

    We review the configuration, define useful events, and document the reports your team needs.

  • Consent choices are not reflected correctly.

    We review tag behavior against the approved consent setup and explain measurement limitations.

  • Reporting requires several spreadsheets.

    We build a dashboard from the supported data sources and show your team how to use it.

Every report says where its numbers come from.

Each report states its definitions, sources and dates, and marks what is measured, what is modeled and what is missing, so a budget decision rests on a record.

Questions

Common questions.

What does tracking setup include?

A measurement plan that names the actions that matter, GA4 and Tag Manager configured to record them, conversion events sent to every ad platform, call tracking where phones matter, and a test that proves each event fires once and lands in your CRM with its source.

Can you repair an existing GA4 setup?

Yes. Most setups we inherit double-count, miss phone calls or lose the source between the form and the CRM. We audit, fix and document, and you keep the history.

What are offline conversions?

Sales that close after the click: a demo booked, a quote accepted, a job completed. We send those back into the ad platforms from your CRM so the platforms optimize toward real revenue instead of form fills.

Do you use server-side tracking?

Yes, alongside browser tracking. Server-side tagging survives ad blockers and browser restrictions and gives you cleaner, more complete data. We set it up where the volume justifies it.

Who controls the data?

You do. Every analytics property, tag container and dashboard is in your name. We are a manager on your accounts, not the owner.
