What Hendrik checks

  1. Lead definition and delivery

    Check LinkedIn conversion rules, campaign and creative delivery, then compare the same lead definition across periods.

  2. Traffic measurement

    Check GA4 property, timezone, consent coverage, source definition, and event configuration before comparing sessions or transactions.

Requirements and data limits

What you need

  • Use one explicit 28-day comparison window, time zone, market, and legal-entity scope before comparing values.
  • Connected LinkedIn Ads account with lead and delivery reporting for the stated window.
  • Connected GA4 property with comparable acquisition and event reporting.
  • Keep provider-specific definitions visible and use an identity or product mapping only where it is established for this workspace.

Keep these differences in mind

  • A platform lead is not automatically a qualified lead, deal, or paid customer.
  • GA4 events and attribution do not automatically establish a paid order, payment, or campaign relationship.
  • LinkedIn leads and GA4 events are not a person-level join.
