Hey everyone, it's Brandon Breshears, and in this episode of the Veterinary Marketing Podcast, we're going to talk about something that's really important for your veterinary practice's marketing strategy: upgrading to Google Analytics 4. Now, if you're not already aware, the old version of Google Analytics, Universal Analytics, is being sunsetted in July, which means you need to switch over to GA4 as soon as possible. But don't worry, it's not just about upgrading for the sake of it - GA4 is actually a better product that comes with a lot of benefits for your practice. First of all, GA4 integrates really well with other Google products, which means you can get a more comprehensive view of your marketing efforts across different channels. And, it allows for more detailed event tracking and conversion tracking, so you can really understand how people are engaging with your website and where you can make improvements. But here's the thing: if you don't make the switch to GA4, you're going to miss out on valuable data and benchmarks that you'll need to inform your marketing decisions. Without this information, you won't be able to see what's working and what's not, and you could end up wasting your marketing budget on tactics that aren't effective. The good news is that by making the switch, you'll get better insights, more conversion actions, and better linking across products. It's really a no-brainer if you want to stay ahead of the game in the competitive world of veterinary practice marketing.
