I'll be talking about this on the KPEYE webinar today, but here are the facts.
It is very common for automotive marketing managers to be confused as to which Google Analytics account their Google Ads agency is using to optimize campaigns. Many stores have 2-5 different Adwords tags on their websites and many are connected to private GA4 accounts.
Some of the largest OEM approved vendors do not use the dealer's copy of GA4 which they use for measurement. Even when we present an optimized GA4 account, once KPEYE fixes all the conversion signals, there can be pushback Caputuring all website conversions signals is the foundation of Google Ads bidding strategies.
So why is this a problem?
What really happens is agencies use their own private GA4 accounts which 99% of the time DO NOT have all the conversion signals from tools on the dealer's website. This means they are optimizing advertising campaigns with weak, incomplete, or improper signals which wastes money and hurts conversion rates.
Why? They agencies say it's too much work to get GA4 cleaned up and configured, so they pass the buck and say its not their job.
Yet, dealers who are giving these agenies 5K, 10K, 20K a month per store for Google Ads are expecting that their money is being well spent.
So far, 100% of the dealer groups I have inspected in the USA needed KPEYE to spot and fix problems, measure conversion improvments, clean up website bloat, fix CTA designs, and convince their agencies to do the right thing.
Let that sink in....
