Goal

To receive email notifications when web metrics change in a meaningful way

Ideal outcome

You have a meaningful set of metrics that are consistently being monitored and you’re alerted when any of them might require your further attention

Why it matters

Monitoring every single metric every day isn’t productive, and a lot of times is also not possible due to time constraints. Having Google Analytics do that for you every single day allows you to focus on what really matters
