The Challenge
EcoGoods, an online retailer specialising in sustainable household products, faced escalating costs in their pay-per-click (PPC) advertising campaigns with dwindling returns on investment. Their existing analytics setup, heavily reliant on Google Analytics 4 (GA4), presented numerous challenges, including difficulties in tracking missing events and inconsistencies in reporting conversion data. With increasing scrutiny around privacy compliance, they also struggled to manage consent effectively while ensuring accurate tracking of user journeys.

MyUserJourney’s custom event tracking capabilities enabled EcoGoods to set up tailored conversions without the hassle of complex configurations, addressing the common frustrations around missing event parameter values in GA4.
Key Implementations Included:
- Utilisation of AI Copilot for natural language queries and predictive analytics for churn and conversion scoring.
