Overview
Uploading offline conversions ties CRM outcomes to ad clicks via GCLID. This closes the loop for B2B long sales cycles where the conversion happens weeks after the click. Hygiene of GCLID capture on forms and CRM is essential—missing IDs mean lost attribution.
What data is involved
- GCLID stored on lead/contact.
- Conversion timestamps and values for optimization events.
