Analytics Consultant for Measurement You Can Trust
Based in Dorset, I help ambitious brands turn analytics into a measurable growth asset.
Through GA4 and GTM audits, event and conversion design, and reporting that maps to revenue, I build measurement systems that fix tracking gaps, improve attribution, and support confident decisions. Every decision is grounded in data, tracked through analytics, and aligned with commercial outcomes — not metrics.
15+ Years Experience
Analytics, SEO, and paid media measurement across B2B, ecommerce, and technical publishing.
Clean Tracking
GA4 + GTM audits that remove duplication, fix misfires, and restore trust in conversion data.
Better Decisions
Reporting built around funnel actions, lead quality, and revenue — not vanity engagement.
Who Analytics Is Right For
Growth Teams
Teams scaling acquisition who need clean events, reliable conversions, and usable attribution.
eCommerce Brands
GA4 ecommerce tracking, consent-safe measurement, and reporting tied to margin and revenue.
Stakeholder Reporting
When the business needs clarity: what’s working, what isn’t, and what to do next.
Broken Tracking
Duplicate conversions, misfiring tags, cookie issues, or dashboards that nobody trusts.
If you just want a dashboard that looks impressive, I’m probably not the right fit. I focus on measurement that drives action.

GA4 and GTM Audits
If your data can’t be trusted, everything downstream breaks. An audit finds what’s firing, what’s missing, and what’s inflating your numbers — then provides a clean, prioritised fix plan.
What this covers
- GA4 property and event review (noise reduction, naming, parameters)
- GTM container audit (triggers, tags, variables, duplication, governance)
- Conversion setup QA (GA4 ↔ Ads imports, primary/secondary actions, dedupe)
- Consent Mode checks and measurement impact review
- Debug workflow and documentation so your team can maintain it
Common outcomes
- Cleaner conversion counts and fewer “ghost” wins
- A fix list your team can implement confidently
Event and Conversion Design
Most setups track the wrong things. I design an event and conversion framework aligned to your funnel, so you can optimise based on real intent and lead quality.
What this covers
- Funnel mapping (micro → macro conversions) tied to business outcomes
- Event specs and implementation plan (GA4 + GTM)
- Lead quality signals (form fields, booking steps, qualified actions)
- Cross-domain / subdomain tracking where needed
- Conversion action strategy for Google Ads (what should be primary)
Common outcomes
- Conversions that reflect real progress, not accidental clicks
- Better optimisation signals for paid media and SEO landing pages
Attribution and Data Integrity
When attribution is unclear, teams make the wrong calls. I audit your attribution setup and tighten the data so marketing and sales can agree on what’s driving results.
What this covers
- Attribution review (GA4 models, channel grouping, source/medium hygiene)
- Referral exclusion and payment gateway fixes (where relevant)
- Spam and internal traffic filtering
- Campaign tagging standards (UTMs that don’t rot)
- CRM handoff basics (what to pass, how to reconcile)
Common outcomes
- More consistent reporting across tools
- Clearer insights into what’s actually driving pipeline and revenue
Reporting and Dashboards
Dashboards should drive decisions. I build reporting that answers the questions stakeholders actually ask, with definitions everyone understands.
What this covers
- Looker Studio dashboards mapped to funnel stages and KPIs
- Blended sources where needed (Ads, GA4, CRM exports)
- Executive summaries: what changed, why, and what to do next
- Metric definitions + documentation (so it doesn’t fall apart)
Common outcomes
- Stakeholders aligned on the truth
- Reporting that supports action, not reporting theatre
My Analytics Process
Good measurement is structured. The process below is designed to fix what’s broken, document what matters, and keep analytics usable long-term.
Discovery and Diagnostics
I review your GA4 setup, GTM container, conversions, consent impact, and reporting stack to establish what’s true and what’s inflated.
Measurement Plan
You get a documented event and conversion plan: what to track, how it fires, and how it maps to decisions.
Implementation and QA
Changes are implemented (or guided) with a clean QA workflow, so the setup stays stable through site edits and releases.
Reporting and Handover
Dashboards and definitions are finalised, then handed over with documentation so your team can maintain and extend the system.

Analytics Consulting FAQs
An analytics consultant designs and improves measurement so marketing and product decisions are based on reliable data. This often includes GA4 and Google Tag Manager audits, event and conversion design, attribution review, consent impact checks, and dashboards that map reporting to funnel performance, lead quality, and revenue.
Fixing inaccurate conversions usually involves auditing how events are fired, removing duplication (for example multiple tags firing), checking GA4↔Google Ads imports, and validating conversion definitions against real user behaviour. The outcome is a clean conversion set that reflects meaningful funnel actions.
Either. Some clients want implementation directly in GTM/GA4, others prefer a clear measurement plan and structured handover for their team or developer. In both cases, the goal is the same: stable tracking, documented conventions, and a QA process that keeps measurement reliable over time.
Yes. Reporting often fails because metrics aren’t defined consistently or dashboards aren’t built around decisions. I build dashboards and reporting frameworks that map to funnel stages, highlight what changed, and make next actions obvious — while documenting definitions so everyone uses the same numbers.
Analytics consulting costs depend on complexity and how hands-on the work needs to be. Common models include a one-off audit and implementation project, a monthly retainer for ongoing measurement and reporting support, or an hourly rate for specific fixes and QA. The right model depends on whether you need a tracking reset or continuous optimisation support.
