We go into the analytics layer behind your store or service business, fix what's broken, and leave you with a data setup that answers the questions you're actually asking — not the ones that were easy to measure.
You're drowning in dashboards, starving for answers.
Most owners we meet have analytics installed — and still no idea what's actually working. The reason isn't laziness. It's that the setup was never built for the questions you're asking.
Online store
Your numbers tell three different stories.
You're not confused because you're bad at data. You're confused because the tools were set up to collect, not to answer. Shopify says one thing, GA4 disagrees, the ad platforms tell a third story — and reconciling them is somebody's full Monday morning. So you pick the number that feels right, run with it, and hope the next campaign confirms it.
Conversion data that doesn't match your back-office
Campaign ROAS you can't actually trust
Checkout drop-off events firing twice (or not at all)
Local / service business
You can't tell which channel is paying off.
You're spending on ads, paying an agency, and still can't draw a straight line from budget to booked clients. Bookings show up, but the chain from ad → click → call → client is invisible. The agency reports "engagement" while you wait to see actual qualified leads. The problem isn't the spend — it's that no one built the tracking to answer that question in the first place.
No clear path from ad spend to booked revenue
Form submissions and calls counted inconsistently
Reports built for vanity, not for decisions
Different stack, same root cause — the data was set up to exist, not to answer. That's the gap we close.
03 — Solution + Positioning
We're not another agency. We're the one before them.
Before you scale ads, before you change platforms, before you hire another marketer — fix the foundation underneath. That's all we do, and we do it in weeks, not quarters.
Reports Decisions.
Foundation, not dashboards
Most analytics tools give you more places to look — not more clarity. We fix the tracking layer underneath so every report, across every platform, pulls from the same verified source. You stop cross-referencing and start deciding.
Quarters Weeks.
Fixed scope, fixed timeline
Defined deliverables, defined scope, a fixed price. You know exactly what you're getting before we start — no moving goalposts, no open-ended retainers, no "we need a few more weeks."
Lock-in Leverage.
Built so you keep it
Everything we configure is documented in plain language and owned by you. What we hand over works on its own — and if you ever want someone watching over it after we're done, we have an option for that too.
04 — Services
Two products. One sequence.
Start with Foundation to establish a verified analytics infrastructure. Continue with Pulse when you want it kept accurate — without hiring in-house.
Step 1 — Foundation
DataScrive Foundation
One-time project
A fixed-scope engagement to rebuild your analytics from the ground up — audited, documented, and verified.
What you get
Four deliverables. Yours to keep.
Foundation Audit Report
We map everything you have, flag what's broken, and give you a prioritized fix list in plain language — before we touch a single setting.
Measurement Plan & Technical Spec
Before any implementation starts, we sit down with you to understand what decisions you're trying to make. Then we design the tracking around your questions — not around what's easy to measure.
GTM + GA4 + Ad Pixels
GTM, GA4, and up to 2 ad pixels (Meta, Google Ads) configured against your Measurement Plan and verified end-to-end.
Custom GA4 Reports
Five reports built around the business questions you actually ask — not GA4's default views. Ready the day we hand over.
Analytics break quietly. Pulse keeps your data layer accurate, monitored, and evolving — month after month.
What's included
What's included, every month.
Break-fix maintenance
When a tag breaks or a conversion stops firing, we catch it and fix it — before it spends a week distorting your reports.
Anomaly alerting
Threshold alerts on your key metrics flag unusual drops or spikes the moment they happen — so a bad number triggers a conversation, not a bad decision.
Quarterly health check
Every quarter, a full QA sweep of your entire data layer with a written summary — so you always know where things stand, not just when something breaks.
Foundation builds it right. Pulse keeps it that way. Month-to-month — cancel any month it doesn't pay for itself.
Six weeks, end to end. Week 1: audit and fix list. Week 2: measurement plan. Weeks 3–4: implementation. Weeks 5–6: QA and handoff.
Q.02Do I need to be technical to work with you?
No. We talk to founders and operators, not engineers. Everything we deliver is explained in plain language and tied to the business questions that matter — the technical work stays documented for whoever needs it.
Q.03What if I already have analytics installed?
That's the typical case. Most clients arrive with GA4, Meta Pixel, and a CRM already wired up — and a sneaking suspicion none of them agree. Week 1 is a Foundation Audit: we map what's there, flag what's broken, and give you a prioritized fix list before changing anything. Existing setup is the starting point, not a problem.
Q.04Is there a long-term contract?
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. Never. The Audit is a fixed-scope, fixed-price project. Maintain is month-to-month — keep it as long as it pays for itself, cancel any month it doesn't.
