Small business owners rely on session count or page views as their primary metric, but these don't correlate with customer acquisition, leading to misallocation of marketing spend.

GA4 provides the data but small business owners aren't using it to break down conversion by traffic source or track return visitor rate, because the interface is complex and the mindset is stuck on vanity metrics.
