Google Analytics Conversion Goals for Booking
A conversion is when somebody books an appointment on your booking form. Every time a customer books an appointment on your form, Launch 27 sends this ‘conversion url’ to Google Analytics that you can use to create goals:
/virtual-pageview/booking/widget/success.htm
Google Analytics lets us use this conversion url to create goals that will help you figure out which websites (or ad campaigns) are sending you the most customers.
Here’s what the URL will look like in your Analytics Reports:
Step 1: Enable Google Analytics in your Launch 27 Account
