Why
Google Analytics is an insanely powerful tool but when it comes to data presentation in a meeting with stakeholders or on a live screen in your open space, your GA dashboards are not enough.
Data Visualisation is a growing important part of your Marketing Technology Stack for communicating & optimizing data, like the R.A.C.E. framework helps with a weekly or monthly review measuring the current effectiveness of your digital marketing with relevant KPIs for measuring Reach, Actions, Conversion, and Engagement; why not getting the best of both worlds?
