Tracking broken since iOS 14. Almost everyone's is — but yours can be fixed in two weeks.

iOS 14, ITP and consent mode silently broke most marketing measurement. Server-side tagging is the proper fix — here's how we deploy it.

Symptoms

If any of these sound familiar, this is your problem.

01

GA4 numbers are 30-50% lower than your CRM count

02

Meta and Google show wildly different conversion numbers

03

Cookie banner adoption tanked your reported conversions

04

You've been told to "trust the platform" — and the platform contradicts itself

Why it happens

The root cause — in plain English.

Apple's App Tracking Transparency, Safari's ITP, Firefox's tracking protection and consent-mode rejection have collectively shredded client-side tracking. Pixels fire from the user's browser, browsers block them, and you lose 20-50% of events. The fix isn't "buy more analytics" — it's server-side tagging: events fire from your server, with your domain, after consent, with first-party data. Most agencies haven't deployed it because it's harder than copy-pasting a tag.
How we diagnose it

The first three things we check.

Three-stage rebuild. One: stand up a GTM server container on a subdomain (sst.yourbrand.com) so events route through your own infrastructure. Two: migrate Google Ads, Meta, GA4 and any CRM events from client-side to server-side, with consent-mode v2 properly implemented. Three: send offline conversions back from CRM to ads platforms so the algorithms train on real revenue. Two weeks, end to end, recovers 20-40% of lost signal.
The cost of waiting

Every month on broken tracking, paid platforms optimise on bad signal — you're paying premium CPCs to be sent the wrong audience, and the dashboard tells you it's working.

First action this week: Compare last month's GA4 lead count with your CRM lead count. The gap percentage is your tracking-loss number — and your business case for the fix.
