Marketing Attribution Dashboard

Overview

Every ecommerce business faces attribution chaos: Meta says it drove 300 purchases, Google says 280, and your order management system shows 400 total. The overlap is real, the methodologies differ, and single-touch last-click models misrepresent the true value of upper-funnel channels. A proper attribution dashboard aggregates all marketing data in one place and applies a consistent model so you can make defensible budget decisions. For most merchants, a third-party attribution tool — not custom code — is the fastest path to accurate channel ROI.

When to Use This Skill

• When ad spend decisions rely on platform-reported ROAS rather than actual order data
• When you suspect paid social is stealing attribution from organic search or email
• When preparing a quarterly marketing budget review and need a defensible data source
• When launching a new channel and need to measure its true incremental contribution
• When reporting marketing performance to investors or a board
