Doing it yourself

What building it yourself involves

  1. Get Meta ad data out, usually through a third-party connector or exports.
  2. Get GoHighLevel contacts, opportunities, appointments, and calls out, for every location.
  3. Match each lead to the ad that produced it.
  4. Map every client's pipeline stages to booked, showed, and closed.
  5. Rebuild the joins when a form, pipeline, or ad account changes.
  6. Repeat for every new client.

Which fits

Choose the tool for the question you're asking

Spreadsheets and Looker Studio may be enough if

  • You have one or two clients and a pipeline that rarely changes.
  • Someone on the team enjoys maintaining data pipelines and has the time.

MARVIN fits if

  • You manage many clients and need the numbers to stay current without maintenance.
  • You want speed to lead and caller performance alongside ad performance.
  • You want history backfilled automatically when a new client is connected.
