About this listen

When Facebook shows 50 sales, Google Analytics shows 35, and Shopify shows 68 — which number do you trust to scale profitably?


In this episode, discover:

  • How server-side tracking eliminates the 20-30% revenue gap plaguing most Shopify brands' analytics, bypassing Apple ITP and ad blockers to achieve 100% order relay from Shopify to your marketing channels
  • Why Littledata's unified data layer synchronizes customer behavior, loyalty tiers, and product metafields across Meta, Google, and Klaviyo — enabling advanced segmentation without custom code or GTM configurations
  • What changes immediately after installation: accurate conversion tracking that feeds real purchase data back into ad algorithms, even for orders from ChatGPT checkout and Shopify's Shop app

Edward Upton is CEO and Founder of Littledata, rebuilding e-commerce tracking infrastructure from the ground up to solve the data accuracy crisis affecting Shopify brands globally.

Whether you're doing $10K months or $1M months, this conversation delivers actionable insights you can implement this week.
