Three questions from Sophus3 about connecting website measurement with the decisions automotive teams make.

In this Sophus3 video, Scott Gairns asks whether the output of automotive analytics teams actually helps the business decide what to do. Website measurement captures one part of a much wider buying journey.
Connect the evidence
The first recommendation is to consider analytics alongside other relevant information, including sales and media investment. That wider perspective can make changes in website behaviour easier to interpret.
Review the tools
The second recommendation is to review whether the measurement setup supports the questions the team needs to answer. The video discusses the analytics products available at its 2023 publication date; product capabilities have evolved since then.
Understand collection choices
The third topic is server-side tracking and its implementation complexity. Moving collection to a server does not remove consent obligations: the measurement design still needs to respect applicable privacy requirements and users’ choices.
A useful review question
For each regular report, identify the decision it supports, the person who uses it and the action it can change. The original video contains the complete discussion.
