How do I track Mother's Day campaign revenue by channel?

Multi-channel Mother's Day campaigns make it difficult to attribute revenue accurately without proper tracking. Merchants who cannot attribute revenue to specific channels cannot identify which channels have the best ROI and where to concentrate spending in future campaigns.

The short answer

Apply consistent UTM source tags to every campaign URL: email, sms, facebook, google, and organic. Create a channel attribution report in GA4 or Shopify using the campaign date filter and the utm_source dimension. Use last-click attribution for direct campaign comparisons and compare cost-per-order across channels. Most Mother's Day campaigns find email generates 40-60% of tracked revenue with the lowest cost per order.
