Tracking that survives iOS, ad-blockers and bad UTM hygiene

A pragmatic stack for first-party tracking that gives you numbers you can actually defend in a board meeting.

Attribution is broken — but you can still make decisions with confidence if your stack is built right.

Start with one source of truth

Pick one number that everyone trusts. For most founders I work with, that's Contribution Margin per Acquisition. Everything else feeds into it.

The minimum viable stack

  • Server-side GTM
  • Deduplicated conversions across Meta, Google, TikTok
  • Enhanced conversions with hashed PII
  • A weekly MER snapshot in a spreadsheet you can email
Channel ROAS is a story. MER is the truth.
