Extend your organization’s use of Google Analytics in Coconut to include cross-domain tracking and/or conversion tracking. Use Google Tag Manager to customize the online booking experience.

When you extend your organization’s use of Google Analytics in Coconut to include cross-domain tracking and/or conversion tracking, you can collect data on your clients’/members’ journey not just through the online booking process, but also how they arrived at the online booking process and whether clicking on an ad converted to a booked appointment. This data can provide your organization with insights into how clients/members are accessing the online booking process, helping to improve the experience.

Before using conversion tracking or cross-domain tracking, it is important to share your GA4 code with Coconut.

To do this:

Once this is in place, it takes approximately 24hrs for data to start flowing into your Google Analytics dashboard.

For more information on how to find your GA4 code, please refer to Google’s documentation.

Conversion tracking captures how your clients/members engage with your organization’s ads. When using conversion tracking with Coconut, a conversion is considered complete when a client/member clicks one of your ads and completes the online booking process (reaches the appointment confirmation screen).

To include Coconut in your organization’s conversion tracking:

For more information on conversion actions, please refer to Google’s documentation.

For more information on using Google Tag Manager to deploy ad conversion tags, please refer to Google’s documentation.

Cross-domain tracking enables you to connect activity on one site with another. This is helpful when using Coconut, as it enables Google Analytics to consider Coconut as an extension of your organization’s website. For example, if a customer clicks on a Book With Us link on your website that directs them to the online booking process with Coconut, this cross-site action is tracked as all happening within one domain with cross-domain tracking.

To set up cross-domain tracking with Coconut:

Google Tag Manager can be used to add tags that customize the online booking process experience within Coconut. For example, you can use GTM to promote appointments at virtual locations or promote digital meeting methods with your clients/members.
