Which customers are about to stop coming back?
By the time you notice a regular has gone quiet, they have booked somewhere else. The warning signs were spread across your accounts: a complaint, a missed visit, a failed card payment. No single tool saw all of it.
How askotter handles it
askotter reads GitHub and LinkedIn Ads side by side, so it can spot the signs that a customer is drifting away.
A person checks the result before it reaches you. This is part of our website design for small business work.
How GitHub and LinkedIn Ads records line up
GitHub and LinkedIn Ads share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in GitHub deployments can be read against what LinkedIn Ads recorded in the same hours.
What customer retention uses from each
Customer retention needs repeat behaviour from the same customer over time.
From GitHub that means releases that touched the customer account area. From LinkedIn Ads it means the campaign that sourced each account.
These two tools hold no shared customer identifier, so per-customer answers need a third connected tool that each side can match, such as GA4 or your CRM. Daily totals work with these two alone.
LinkedIn Ads is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
GitHub on its own
GitHub knows what code changed and when. It cannot tell you whether that change cost you leads or sales.
Timing. GitHub timestamps every commit, merge and deployment to the second.
Access. A GitHub App or token with read access to the repositories you choose.
LinkedIn Ads on its own
LinkedIn sees clicks, lead-form submissions and the companies it reached. It never sees whether a lead became a deal.
Timing. LinkedIn reports conversions under its own windows, thirty days after a click and seven after a view by default.
Access. The LinkedIn Marketing API with read access to the ad account.
