CMOs reporting to a sceptical CFO
Where the marketing budget gets challenged annually and you need defensible numbers.

Start your audit →Looker Studio and attribution dashboards by channel.
Open the average Nigerian marketing dashboard and you will see Meta's reported revenue, Google's reported revenue, TikTok's reported revenue, and your store's actual revenue. Sum the first three, and the total exceeds the fourth. Often by a lot. Every platform is taking credit for the same sale. The dashboard is mathematically incoherent and everyone has agreed not to mention it because nobody wants to be the person who points out the emperor is naked.
A real marketing dashboard reconciles. It takes platform-reported numbers as inputs but applies attribution rules that prevent double-counting. It pulls from your actual sales system as the source of truth on revenue. It applies a defensible attribution model - first-touch, last-touch, multi-touch or data-driven - consistent across channels. The number on the dashboard matches the number on the bank statement, to within a margin your CFO can live with. That is the standard we work to.
Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio) is free, integrates beautifully with Google's ecosystem, and is the right starting point for most Nigerian marketing teams. Power BI fits organisations already on Microsoft 365 with broader BI ambitions. Tableau is the choice for serious data teams with complex visualisation needs and a budget for it. We will pick based on your existing stack, the size of your data team, and what your executives will actually open. Picking the most powerful tool nobody opens is a worse outcome than picking the simplest tool everyone uses.
We will rebuild your top dashboard to match your real sales data - fixed price, three weeks.
The dashboard is the visible output. The data engineering behind it is the load-bearing layer. ETL pipelines from each platform - Meta, Google, TikTok, your store, your CRM, your accounting system - each with its own API, rate limits, schema and quirks. Refresh schedules tuned to balance freshness against cost. Error handling for the inevitable API outages. Data warehouse design so historical analyses can run on years of consistent data. Most agencies skip this work and produce dashboards that look fine until you ask a question they cannot support. We invest in the boring layer because it determines what is ultimately possible above it.
Sales come from one place — your store or your CRM. Marketing dashboards reference that, not platform numbers.
Every executive dashboard answers exactly three questions. More than that and nobody reads it.
