Welcome back to a new blog post!! Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s essential for anyone looking to elevate their marketing game: data. If you’ve ever wondered what I mean when I say “data” and how it can revolutionize your marketing and sales, you’re in the right place. Let’s break it down step by step.
Understanding Data: The Basics
When I talk about data in the context of your content, I mean understanding how your content converts. Conversions can take many forms: sales, revenue, webinar leads, quiz signups, or lead magnet signups. I like to say a conversion happens when your audience follows through on your call-to-action (CTA).
Tracking your data means monitoring how your content leads to these conversions. Most people are keen on understanding how much money their content generates. They’re launching and aiming for specific financial goals, like $50,000 or $100,000, and need to know what’s working and what’s not.
The Three Types of Data
- Direct Feedback from Clients: When clients or leads mention specific content that drew them to you, that’s gold. It could be an Instagram DM saying they loved your podcast, or a LinkedIn comment expressing how your post inspired them to reach out. This feedback helps identify which content pieces are most effective in attracting clients.
- Social Media and Email Analytics: These analytics show how your audience engages with your content. Are they opening your emails? Interacting with your social media posts? While these metrics indicate engagement, they don’t directly correlate to sales, which can be frustrating. A viral reel might not translate into conversions, and that’s why this data alone isn’t enough.
- Google Analytics: This is where the real magic happens. Google Analytics tracks what users do after they click your links—whether it’s from social media, emails, podcasts, or YouTube. It shows their behavior on your landing pages, sales pages, and more. This data is crucial for understanding which content pieces are driving conversions and generating revenue.
The Holy Grail of Launch Success
By tracking your data, especially through Google Analytics, you can pinpoint exactly which content pieces are driving conversions. This insight allows you to focus on creating more of what works and less of what doesn’t, making your launches smoother and more successful. If you’re ready to take your launches to the next level, we’re here to support you with our setup and consulting services. See below for more details!

- Launch Setup with Google Analytics: Perfect If you want us to build your custom launch dashboard so you can track & analyze the data yourself. We make the setup once and you use it for a lifetime. I like to say this is the perfect solution for the person who goes to a restaurant and says “This was delicious, give me the recipe so I can make it at home!”
