Business & Agency Owners – Listen Up:

The #1 reason your ad campaigns hit a wall?

INACCURATE DATA.

It’s the frustration holding back ambitious advertisers like you — those who are ready to scale but can’t break through.

At this stage, you’re trying to lower ad costs and increase value. But if the data you rely on is off, making the right decisions becomes nearly impossible.

Here’s the real issue:

Inaccurate data doesn’t just impact your decisions — it also sabotages the advertising algorithm.

The better your data, the better the algorithm can identify your best customers.

But getting accurate data and conversion tracking right is easier said than done.

That’s where the Data-Driven Scaling Formula comes in — putting accurate conversion tracking at the core of your strategy.

The Data-Driven Scaling Formula empowers ambitious business owners like you to scale faster by leveraging the right data at the right time.

The formula is made up of three key parts:

	1.	Enhanced Performance Tracking: Best-in-class server-side tracking combined with smart data usage throughout the entire customer journey. This ensures both you and the advertising algorithm are making better decisions and taking smarter actions.

	2.	Precision Algorithm Training: Fueling your advertising algorithm with high-quality data to significantly improve targeting. Now, you’re only spending money on customers who bring real value.

	3.	Transform Data into Growth: Gain control over your business’s growth by understanding what works — and what doesn’t — in both marketing and sales.

Hi, I’m Michel – The Conversion Tracking Guy.

With over 18 years in Digital Marketing, I’ve witnessed firsthand how advertising platforms and marketing systems are becoming increasingly data-dependent. Yet, proper conversion tracking and data architecture are often overlooked because they seem complex or costly.

I’ve helped over 250 business owners unlock the full potential of their marketing with server-side tracking and analytics. In almost every case, the results were clear: a significant boost in performance.

Let’s talk about how accurate data can transform your business.

Co-Founder

AldrichX is a data-driven marketing agency that helps 6+ figure fashion eCommerce brands to grow their business whilst they can keep focussing on building their brands.

Ecom subscription sellers: 

Stop wasting your Meta Ads budget on returning customers.

Such an easy fix, yet almost nobody does it.

Every major Ecom platform already gives you the parameter you need, you just have to plug it into your tracking setup.

Once you tell Meta who’s new vs returning, everything changes:

- Cleaner attribution
- Less wasted spend
- Better audience signals

More budget going to actual new customers

Meta can’t optimize for what you don’t tell it, give it the right data, and it will find the right people.

Want help setting it up? 

You know where to find me ;)

I train your ad algorithms to find your best buyers. Accurate conversion tracking + smarter buying signals = higher ROAS.

You’re launching the Black Friday campaign with sweaty palms…
…and your developer just deleted the tracking code 😭

Always check  tracking first before launching  new campaigns:

1. For Meta, use the Meta Pixel helper tool
2. Google Ads, check the Google Tag Assistent

Still not sure if everything is working?

DM me😀

Shopify Analytics sucks.
Tracking breaks.
And “Direct” suddenly looks like your best-performing channel.

But here’s the thing, it’s not Shopify’s fault, it’s Consent Mode.

When a user doesn’t accept cookies, Shopify simply stops tracking.

No pageviews.
No addtocarts.
No purchases.
No channel.

Which means your data becomes… well, kind of useless.

Another place where tracking seems broken 🤯

So what are your options?

1️⃣ GA4 server-side setup with Consent Mode
2️⃣ Triple Whale

Both have their pros and cons, ut they’ll give you a much clearer picture of what’s really happening, even when users don’t consent.

What are you using right now to close this gap?

Helping agencies deliver better client results — with accurate tracking, stronger algorithm signals, and actionable ad dashboards

People don’t want to spend a dime on conversion tracking.
But they’re happy to invest in “algorithm training.”

Most advertisers still think tracking is just a fix.

It’s not, it’s the foundation for growth.

Better tracking doesn’t just lead to better decisions....
it sends better signals to the algorithm about who buys and who doesn’t.

Imagine being able to tell Meta or Google exactly who to target, that’s what accurate tracking really does.

Curious how accurate your tracking really is.
You know where to find me. 😉

“Our Google Ads spend doubled… but sales didn’t.”

Not funny when you’re managing a €600K budget.

Turns out, Google was seeing fake purchases.
So it kept spending like crazy because performance looked great.

What happened?
After a website update, purchase events started firing twice.

The algorithm thought it was crushing it.

That’s why you always audit your tracking after any major change:

- Review tracking codes
- Test if purchases fire correctly
- Monitor data closely the first few days

Nothing’s more painful than spending big…
and realizing you’ve been optimizing on fake results.

Proud that TrackingArchitects is one of Stape’s Top Partners.
And it’s more than just a badge.

Because my clients now know:

> I’ve done more than enough tracking implementations to handle any setup
> They can rely on an extra pair of expert eyes when accuracy matters most
> I follow a structured process to deliver the highest quality

It’s always great to be recognized, 
but even better when it helps my clients scale with confidence.

How’s your tracking going? 👀

70% of your Google Ads leads are spam.
Real problem? You keep feeding Google… spam data.

So Google thinks those fake leads are exactly what you want, it finds you more of them.

Meanwhile, the good leads?
Google has no idea what they look like.

Here’s the fix:

- Mark qualified leads in your CRM
- Setup offline conversion tracking 
- Activate Enhanced Conversions
- Gather data in Google Ads 

Make the switch when everything looks good and feed Google with signals from high quality leads. 

Better signals = better leads

Still getting mad when I see this. 

You're spending 100k monthly on Ads and using a free tracking plugin 🤯 

Audited an e-commerce brand this week.
Meta was their ONLY growth channel.
Big budget. Big ambitions.

But they were only sending 60-70% of their data back to Meta.

Why?

The Facebook app in Shopify was not tracking all data. 

And then they wondered why:

> ROAS was unstable
> Scaling didn’t work
> Meta was “inconsistent”

The algorithm can’t optimize on blind spots (and it's getting worse).

So we fixed it:

+ Implemented a real data layer
+ Added server-side tracking
+ Passed email, phone, location
+ Captured click IDs

Result? 20-30% more conversions. Instantly.

DON’T save on tracking please 🙏

Meta and Google Ads numbers seem off… and you’ve already tried everything:

- Free plugins
- Agency experts
- YouTube tutorials
- Cheap freelancers
- In-house developers
- A fresh Google Tag Manager setup

But still, after 6 months you’re staring at numbers that make zero sense whilst your competitor absolutely crushing it.

Let's end this frustration once and for all.

Hire a tracking expert or agency, ask them:

1. How many times the've done the setup you need
2. How they measure accuracy and how to optimize for
3. If they have a 'second-pair-of-eyes' mechanism
4. What their monitoring process is

Time to stop doubting and start scaling with confidence.

Getting you inbound leads through Content Design

I ran an agency for 6 years and invisibility nearly killed it (twice).  

We 100% relied on word-of-mouth marketing:

- Leads from friends and family (not even kidding)
- Leads from former and current clients
- Leads through competitors

We took on what we could get.

Sometimes we skyrocketed. Often we struggled.

The feast and famine cycle was real.

And it was painfully frustrating.

As a business owner, I didn't have:

- Time and focus on growth
- Time to take care of my team
- Time to generate leads myself

I was consistently hustling and putting out fires.

When I pivoted in 2022, I chose a different strategy:

→ Creating content to build a reputation and presence
→ Creating content to show the world my offering
→ Creating content to generate leads every week

At least, that was the plan.

It took me months to do it:

I started with text posts. Then I added visuals. Then I added carousels. Then I 'designed' my content. Every upgrade increased my growth and revenue.

This led me to craft a new solution:

Content Design for LinkedIn. 

Since then, I've helped clients build recognizable brands that attract and sell: 

- Matt Barker 2X’d his post views, attracted higher paying clients, and 2X’d product sales within 2 months of working together.

- Mollie Cox made $16k (next to her full-time job) within 2 months of working together.

- Pascalle Bergman's revenue went up by 73% after working together.

If that sounds good, there 3 ways I help founders, CEOs, and creators attract leads on LinkedIn: 

1. Content Design done-for-you (ghostwriting + content designs)

2. 1:1 Content Design coaching to attract your ideal audience

3. My first-ever Content Design cohort in September

My posts started going viral when I added this: 

Infographics. 

But people avoid them because (they think) it’s hard.
 
Here’s a dead simple structure I use: 

1. Start with the hook 
– "How to" or "How I" works well 
– Or call out your ICP with a quote
 
2. Pick one clear topic 
– One problem, one angle, one outcome
 
3. Break the idea into steps 
– 3-10 actions that solve the problem 
– Steps should feel like a natural sequence
 
4. Add structure 
– Give each step its own section 
– Create hierarchy so the reader knows where to look
 
5. Add navigation 
– Use numbers or arrows 
– Guide the reader through the flow
 
6. Add context 
– 1–3 short lines that explain each step 
– Use the language your ideal audience uses
 
7. Improve readability 
– Simple words, short sentences 
– Contrast and spacing
 
8. Fill the remaining space with value 
– Add small tips, examples, or clarifications 
– Be creative: there’s no such thing as perfect

Content Design that attracts your ideal audience

How I create viral infographics

How to turn 1 story into 3 different posts ↓

If you want to grow like crazy on LinkedIn: 

- Stay useful
- Monetize fast
- Post every day
- Stay in your lane
- Avoid anything personal
- Expand to every new platform
- Comment 100s of times per day
- Buy your way into new audiences

That’s the 0.001% path.

But most people don't want to be influencers.

They're trying to build a business.

And their clients want to work with REAL people:

Share what you love building (even if it’s small).
Share what you stand for (even if it’s unpopular).
Share the project that bombed (the one you hid).
Share what you refuse to tolerate (even when scary).
Share stuff that feels too Facebook (because it’s real).
Share how you screwed up big time (and had to own it).
Share the mistake you still think about (and learned from).

And publish more messy copy (unlike I've done here). 

Share you. 

Your feed is waiting for it. 

PS. I share deeper insights here (if you want them):

I just built a live sales page in 3 minutes.

(Using a meeting transcript)

My goal: create a course sales page.

Here’s what it created (automatically):

- Strong sales heading
- Lead magnet buttons 
- Sign-up buttons
- Pain points
- Course modules 
- Value proposition
- Real results 
- Sales CTAs

All I did was: 

1. Copied a client meeting transcript
2. Opened Gamma.app
3. Pasted it into the editor
4. Asked it to create a “course sales page”

It was 95% ready.

Then I used Gamma's AI Agent to polish it.

Built in minutes without hiring devs or designers. 

Try it yourself: https://gamma.app

Gamma post - course page

Last weekend, 6 of my best friends came to visit me in Spain.

“You look terrible”, my friend jokingly said.

He was right. I was exhausted.

I had just finished my 1st cohort.

(AND my first paid workshop.)

But it was amazing.

Students learned:

1. How to create a solid ICP
2. How to position on LinkedIn
3. How to write copy that sells
4. How to create carousels
5. How to create infographics
6. How to “steal” and reframe
7. How to sell in DMs and calls
8. How to engage and grow

And I gave tons of my Figma templates away.

I’m gonna do it all again in January.

Fully recharged. Program upgrade. More accountability. And tons of resources. 

(Including community access in February 👀)
