Hero 44

How sure are you that a particular ad led to a sale of your product or service? 

 

For big tech companies like Apple and Facebook, tracking data is part of their business. The question is how much of the data is accurate. While these tech giants might attribute your sales to ads placed on their platform, you won’t really know for sure unless you get to the bottom of everything.

Tune in now and get the lowdown on data, cookies, and tracking.
