Why are some online businesses growing their revenue faster than others?
Because their business owners leverage their data in everyday decision-making.
I’ll teach you how to use Google Analytics to drive revenue for your eCommerce store. Learn which metrics to track, where to find them and, most importantly, how to turn them into actionable insights that will make a difference to your bottom line.

What They Say
This course is brilliant for eCommerce - the content is so much more relevant than the standard GA courses available as it focuses on how to use data to make better business decisions. This is a must for our whole team & will now form a key part of our training program for any new starters.

This has by far been the best analytics course I've taken because it focuses solely on eCommerce and only on what you need to know. My clients have absolutely loved it too and are weaving data into their team culture.

Wow, I knew the basics of GA but now I am so much more confident! This by far the best data course for eCommerce I've come across. I loved Kate's contextual teaching style and the live data analysis and real examples provided.

This course covers everything you need to know to fully leverage your Google Analytics account for your eCommerce store.

Some store owners know their data - but they don't know what to do with it.
Watch me analyse Google Analytics out loud and together we'll generate valuable insights and actions I would recommend to a client - so you can do the same with your own store!

I'm Kate, your teacher
I'm an eCommerce consultant and growth marketer with over 10 years' experience in Australia and New York City. Over my career, I've had the pleasure of working with some of the most exciting brands including West Elm, Sportsgirl, Nike and MECCA Cosmetica.
What I hear time and time again is this phrase:
"I have a Google Analytics account, but I never really look at it".
I get it. GA can seem overwhelming, but understanding and leveraging your data is absolutely essential to running a successful online store. It's what separates the 'lucky ones' and 'coasters' from the high-growth brands that are dominating eCommerce.
Clients are always asking me for Google Analytics training resources, but I struggled to find them a decent online course that was specifically designed for eCommerce and delivered - so I decided to make one myself.
I currently work with some Australia's fastest-growing online brands, including Nimble Activewear, The Daily Edited, Steele Label and Liberty Belle Rx Skincare.
