Meevo and Google Analytics: An Overview
As a Meevo business, you can integrate Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Google Tag Manager (GTM) to track how clients engage with your online services, including Online Booking, eGift sales, and Online Membership Sales. These powerful tools give you the insights you need to improve the client experience, optimize conversions, and make data-driven business decisions.
Why Use Google Analytics?
Once you connect your GA4 Measurement ID in Meevo, the platform automatically tracks key events that will help you to:
Understand Client Behavior
You'll collect data when users start a booking, add a service, or complete a purchase, allowing you to answer questions like:
- How many clients are visiting your site?
- Which services or memberships are selected most often?
- Where do clients drop off in the booking or checkout process?
Track Conversions and ROI
Booking and purchase events are tracked automatically...no additional setup required. You'll be able to see:
- How many visitors complete bookings, purchase eGifts, or sign up for memberships
- The total revenue generated from those conversions
- Which marketing channels (like Google Search, email, or social media) are driving traffic and sales
Note: To track conversions in Google Ads, Meta, or other ad platforms, or to use Enhanced Conversions, you’ll need to use Google Tag Manager to send those events to those platforms.
Monitor User Engagement Across Devices
GA4 shows how clients access your site (mobile, desktop, or tablet) and how their behavior differs across devices.
Why Use Google Tag Manager?
Without GTM, Meevo controls what's sent over to Google Analytics. This means you'll see standard events (like form_start, add_to_cart) but you cannot modify, extend, or customize them.
While GA4 tracking is automatic, you can optionally use Google Tag Manager (GTM) to:
Add Marketing Tags and Customize Tracking
While Meevo tracks the most important booking and purchase events automatically, GTM gives you full control to:
- Add tags for platforms like Google Ads, Meta (Facebook), TikTok, or LinkedIn.
- Set up custom conversion tracking and remarketing.
- Trigger events based on things like service category, location, or provider.
Make Changes Without Code
You don’t need a developer to customize your tracking. With GTM, you can:
- Add or edit tags without touching the Meevo site.
- Use Preview Mode to test changes safely.
- Deploy updates instantly and roll back if needed.
