Write a one-page operating charter for Google Ads conversion action and bidding-signal integrity before exporting any data. State the exact decision this workflow supports: which conversion actions should be primary, secondary, fixed, excluded, valued differently, or monitored. Define the in-scope business units, pipelines, regions, date window, record types, and exclusions, then name one analysis owner, one Google Ads data owner, and one final approver. Record the review cadence as monthly and before bidding changes and specify where evidence, approvals, and exceptions will be stored. Review the charter with the approver and do not proceed until the scope and decision rights are accepted.
An approved operating charter with scope, owners, cadence, and decision rights.
A narrow decision produces better analysis than a broad request to “find insights”; keep out-of-scope questions in a separate backlog.
