Using Google Analytics, we can know the who, what, when, where, and how of actions on your website leading to donations. This data is key to measuring the effectiveness of your digital strategy and setting SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely) goals for your annual fundraising campaigns. But what is the important information, how do you set it up, where do you find it, and how do you report it to your team in an actionable way? Join Whole Whale’s very own Data Engineering Manager Axel Kaban in conversation with Fundraising Manager Isabelle Brauer to discuss tips to setting up and using Google Analytics to track donations. 

You will learn how to:

• Determine the digital metrics that matter most to your mission-driven impact
• Make tracking these metrics easy and free using Google Analytics 
• Avoid common mistakes when analyzing data 
• Leverage data to inform SMART donor acquisition tactics and retention strategies
