🏷 Already using Google Tag Manager?
While Google Tag Manager has been here for years, we think that could improve when it comes to event tracking.
Goal Tracker for Google Analytics reduces the guesswork involved with recommended events and only takes a few clicks.
Oh, and the plugin can work on a website that already uses Google Tag Manager.
