Which campaigns should you grow and which should you stop?
Each campaign gets judged inside its own platform. A Meta campaign can look weak on its own and still drive 40% of your Google conversions. You cannot see that from inside Meta.

How Shopify and HubSpot records line up
Shopify and HubSpot both store the customer's email address. askotter lowercases and trims it on both sides before matching, so the same person shows up as one customer across the two tools.
Both tools can hold a phone number. Numbers are normalised to one international format before matching, which catches customers who never gave an email.
Shared between the two: the customer email address, the phone number and the UTM campaign tags.
What campaign optimization uses from each
Campaign optimization needs cost on one side and outcome on the other.
From Shopify that means revenue per order tagged to its landing-page campaign. From HubSpot it means contacts and closed deals by original source.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Shopify on its own
Shopify sees the order and the landing page. It has no view of the ad impressions, emails or searches that came before that session.
Timing. Shopify writes each order the moment it is placed, including the landing page and referring site of the session that bought.
Access. Read-only access through the Shopify Admin API, approved from the store admin.
HubSpot on its own
HubSpot sees the contact and the deal. It cannot see money collected outside it, or ad spend on platforms it is not connected to.
Timing. HubSpot updates contact and deal properties as they change, and keeps the original source and first page seen on each contact.
Access. A HubSpot private app or OAuth connection with read-only CRM scopes.
