Adobe SiteCatalyst Top Gun

If you would like your organization to get the most out its investment in Adobe SiteCatalyst, this “Top Gun” training class is for you. Unlike other training classes that cover the basics about how to configure Adobe SiteCatalyst, this one-day advanced class digs deeper into features you already know and also covers many features that you may not have used.

Data Visualization and Expert Presentation
Michele Kiss and Tim Wilson
The best digital analysis in the world is ineffective without successful communication of the results. In this half-day class, Web Analytics Demystified Partners Michele Kiss and Tim Wilson share their advice for successfully presenting data to all audiences, including communication of numbers, data visualisation, dashboard best practices and effective storytelling and presentation.
Requirements Gathering the Demystified Way
John Lovett
One of the things that we’ve learned in our years of experience working with digital analytics, is that business-users are rarely able to articulate their analytics requirements in a manner that can be easily translated into measuring website effectiveness. Simply asking these users what data they need leads to insufficient information and gaps in most web analytics deployments. As such, Web Analytics Demystified developed a process designed to gather information necessary to consistently evaluate the effectiveness of our clients fixed web, mobile sites, mobile apps and other digital assets. In this session, John Lovett will train users on validating existing business requirements and formulating new ones based on stakeholder needs and our proven best practices.
Tag Management Essentials
Josh West
You’ve no doubt heard the buzz about tag management, but perhaps you’re a bit late to the party. In this session, Web Analytics Demystified partner Josh West will introduce the basics of tag management and show how it can simplify your online marketing efforts. You’ll review concepts like a data layer, how tag management can reduce your dependence on IT, and cover the most popular features of the leading tools in the market.
Testing and Optimization the Demystified Way
Brian Hawkins
Brian Hawkins will share best practices when it comes to growing or starting an optimization program at your organization. Best practices around segmentation, targeting, integrations with internal and external solutions, and test types will be covered.
Technical Deep Dive
led by Josh West and Kevin Willeitner
Are you stuck on a particularly tricky web analytics problem? Not sure how translate your requirements into something your developers can actually use? Bring your questions to this session, where Josh West and Kevin Willeitner will provide hands-on guidance and real-world code and examples you can use today – or share with your developers so they can use them, too.
Advanced Google Analytics + Google Tag Manager
led by Michele Kiss
Getting the most out of Google Analytics isn’t just about a quick copy-paste of JavaScript. In this half-day training, you will learn how to leverage Google Analytics as a powerful enterprise tool.

We will also cover reporting and analysis capabilities and new features, including discussion of some exclusive Premium features.
