Dems, can you show me how to setup my account so I can attribute calls back to website visitors? I want to know which ads, campaigns and keywords are driving calls and send these as conversions back to the lead gen platforms I run ads.

This came to my inbox the other day and got us thinking that we don’t have a hands on video tutorial where we show you how to configure your account for session based tracking.
Time to end this 🙂
In the guide below we cover how to attribute calls at the session level (UTM sources, keywords, etc.) and share our recommendations on how to optimally configure your account!
Ready to dive in?

With forms, we have google analytics and other tools to record and track submissions.
