With UA’s sunset approaching, Talent Systems needed to migrate its data and analytics to GA4 for multiple websites without compromising data integrity or continuity.

the solution

To address these challenges, Talent Systems engaged Marketlytics to conduct a comprehensive GA4 audit and implementation project. Marketlytics’ methodology involved:
 
    1. Discovery and Stakeholder Alignment: Conducting in-depth interviews with Talent Systems’ stakeholders to understand their reporting requirements and align on the desired GA4 implementation.

    3. Tag Manager and UA Audit: Auditing the existing Google Tag Manager (GTM) setup and architecture, as well as the current UA implementation for Casting Networks, to identify any potential issues or areas for improvement.

      We found that there was a disconnect in tracking setup accross their multiple websites which we planned to fix and ensure consistency after migration.
    4.  
    5. Measurement Plan and Roadmap: Developing a detailed measurement plan and roadmap tailored to Talent Systems’ specific needs, that established a shared framework for measurement across their ecosystem of websites.
    6.  
    7. GA4 Website Migration: Managing the GA4 migration process across Talent Systems’ multiple websites, coordinating with the right stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition.
    8.  
    9. Event Migration and Validation: Migrating events from UA to GA4, ensuring accurate data capture and validating event tracking to guarantee data integrity.
    10.  
    11. Launch, Monitoring, and Optimization: Launching the newly implemented GA4 setup and continuously monitoring its performance, making adjustments as needed to optimize data collection and analysis.
    12.  
    13. Data Activation: Activating the migrated data to drive business improvement initiatives, empowering Talent Systems to make data-driven decisions that enhance user engagement and business outcomes.
