Gap to fix (§1 -1pt): utm_content and utm_term are captured to localStorage but not stored on AduLead or Order entities. Add these fields to saveAduLead and createCheckoutSession to reach 10/10.
Section 2

Meta Attribution

9/10

CERTIFIED

✓ PASS

fbclid URL param capture

captureAttribution() in lib/analytics.js reads fbclid on every page load

✓ PASS

fbclid localStorage persistence

localStorage.setItem('attr_fbclid', val) on first seen

✓ PASS

_fbc cookie set (90d)

fb.1.{timestamp}.{fbclid} written to document.cookie — fixed for EMQ 10/10

✓ PASS

_fbc re-hydrated from localStorage

On return visits, cookie restored from localStorage if missing

✓ PASS

fbclid stored on AduLead

AduLead.fbclid field — populated by saveAduLead function

✓ PASS

fbclid stored on Order

Order.fbclid field — populated from Stripe session metadata in stripeWebhook

✓ PASS

fbclid passed to Stripe metadata

Checkout functions pass attribution data including fbclid to Stripe session metadata

✓ PASS

fbclid sent to Meta CAPI server-side

metaCapi function: user_data.fbc = 'fb.1.{ts}.{fbclid}' — called from stripeWebhook for every purchase

✓ PASS

Browser pixel Purchase event fired

PurchaseSuccess page fires fbq('track','Purchase') with eventID = stripe_session_id for deduplication

✓ PASS

Server + browser deduplication

Same event_id (stripe session ID) used in both browser pixel and CAPI — Meta deduplicates

Gap to fix (§2 -1pt): metaCapi fbc format uses Math.floor(Date.now()/1000) — should be ms timestamp: fb.1.{Date.now()}.{fbclid}. Minor but affects match rate precision.
Section 3

Google Attribution

8/10

PARTIAL

✓ PASS

gclid URL param capture

captureAttribution() reads gclid from URL params on every page load

✓ PASS

gclid localStorage persistence

localStorage.setItem('attr_gclid', val)

✓ PASS

gclid stored on AduLead

AduLead.gclid field — populated by saveAduLead

✓ PASS

gclid stored on Order

Order.gclid field — populated from Stripe session metadata in stripeWebhook

✓ PASS

gclid passed to Stripe metadata

Checkout functions pass gclid in session metadata

✓ PASS

GA4 gtag events fired

track() in analytics.js calls window.gtag('event', ...) on all events

✗ FAIL

Google Ads conversion tracking

GAP: No server-side Google Ads conversion API call. Only client-side gtag. Risk: adblocker gaps.

Gap to fix (§3 -2pt): No server-side Google Ads Conversion API. Client-side gtag only — blocked by adblockers in ~20-30% of traffic. Implement Google Ads Conversion API in stripeWebhook alongside metaCapi.
Section 4

Lead Chain Linkage

9/10

CERTIFIED

Ad Click

fbclid / gclid captured on landing

Landing Page

captureAttribution() stores all UTMs + click IDs

Quiz Completion

AduFinderQuizV3 passes attribution to results page via sessionStorage

Lead Record (AduLead)

saveAduLead stores: email, fbclid, gclid, utm_source, utm_campaign, utm_medium, source, zip_code, state

Email Automation

lifecycleEmailProcessor reads AduLead → sends lifecycle emails keyed by lead.email

Checkout

createCheckoutSession / createCheckoutSessionTiered pass attribution metadata to Stripe session

Purchase (Order)

stripeWebhook creates Order with user_email, fbclid, gclid, utm_* from Stripe metadata

Dashboard

MyAduDashboard loads by email → links to Orders by user_email

~

Lead→Order link

Linked by email (AduLead.email = Order.user_email). Direct ID foreign key missing.

Gap (§4 -1pt): AduLead → Order linked by email only (no order.lead_id FK). If a user changes email between lead capture and purchase, chain breaks. Recommend adding lead_id to Order entity and populating it in stripeWebhook.

Critical Gap (§6 -2pt): All email CTA links lack UTM parameters. Add ?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign={email_id} to every email CTA. Without this, email-sourced revenue appears as "direct" in all analytics tools.
Section 7

Dashboard Attribution

4/5

PARTIAL

✓ PASS

Dashboard visit tracked

Analytics.dashboardLoaded() fires on dashboard load — goes to GA4 + GTM

✓ PASS

Dashboard CTA click tracked

Analytics.engineeringClicked() fires on service CTAs with sourcePage param

✓ PASS

Dashboard purchase linked

Checkout from dashboard passes UTMs from localStorage → attribution preserved on Order

~ PARTIAL

Dashboard → purchase revenue tie

GAP: No utm_source=dashboard parameter added when checkout is launched from dashboard. Can't distinguish dashboard-sourced vs ad-sourced purchases.

Executive Answer Test

9/11

PARTIAL

✓ PASS

Which Meta campaign generated the most revenue?

Order.utm_campaign WHERE Order.fbclid IS NOT NULL → group by utm_campaign, sum usd_amount_paid

✗ FAIL

Which email generated the most revenue?

GAP: Email CTAs lack utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign={email_name} parameters. Revenue cannot be attributed to specific emails without UTM tagging on email links.

✓ PASS

Which state generated the most revenue?

Order.project_state → group by state, sum usd_amount_paid. AduLead.state also available.

✓ PASS

What is revenue per lead?

SUM(Order.usd_amount_paid) / COUNT(DISTINCT AduLead.email)

✓ PASS

What is CAC by product?

Requires ad spend data from Meta Ads API (META_ADS_ACCESS_TOKEN) + Order grouping by package_type. Ad spend synced via syncMetaAdSpend function.

✓ PASS

What is ROAS by campaign?

SUM(Order.usd_amount_paid WHERE utm_campaign=X) / ad_spend_for_campaign_X. Available when Meta Ads spend sync is active.

Fix Roadmap to 100/100

Apply these 5 changes to reach full certification.

1

Add UTM params to all email CTA links

+2pt §6Low effort

Append ?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lifecycle&utm_campaign={email_id} to every link in lifecycleEmailProcessor, reactivationEmail, sendUpsellAbandonmentEmail

2

Store utm_content + utm_term on AduLead and Order

+1pt §1Low effort

Add fields to AduLead entity, pass them in saveAduLead and createCheckoutSession metadata

3

Add order.lead_id FK to Order entity

+1pt §4Medium effort

Add lead_id field to Order entity. In stripeWebhook, after creating order, look up AduLead by email and set order.lead_id. Enables direct lead→order joins.

4

Fix metaCapi fbc timestamp format

+1pt §2Low effort

Change Math.floor(Date.now()/1000) to Date.now() in metaCapi fbc construction. Meta expects milliseconds.

5

Implement Google Ads Conversion API server-side

+2pt §3High effort

In stripeWebhook, after creating order, POST to Google Ads Conversions API (gclid + conversion value). Ensures Google purchase tracking is adblocker-proof.

Current: 89/100 → After fixes: 100/100

All 5 fixes are low-to-medium effort. Estimated 4–6 hours of engineering work.
