Selecting the right white‑label reporting platform: 3 vendor deep‑dives for agencies that need narrative templates, KPI governance and automated PDF exports

A practical, non‑technical guide that compares three agency‑centric reporting platforms (Whatagraph, AgencyAnalytics, ReportGarden), maps governance requirements to platform features, shows which plan tiers include each capability, and supplies implementation recipes (API/Zapier), a product‑selection checklist, a security/compliance checklist, and a short migration plan so agencies can pick and deploy the right tool without guessing.

Operational guide for agencies: choosing MMM, holdouts or data‑driven attribution for mid‑market e‑commerce (with governance & onboarding checklist)

A hands‑on companion to the parent decision framework that tells agency teams exactly how to pick between media mix modelling (MMM), randomized holdouts, and data‑driven attribution (DDA) based on client size and data maturity — and then how to operationalize the chosen path. Includes a prioritized 6–8 step starter checklist (tagging audit, server‑side events, canonical order ID, dedupe rules, data warehouse schema, conversion windows/LTV), a simple rule‑of‑thumb MDE / sample size calculator for holdouts, explicit data engineering table/field requirements, privacy & consent actionables, a calibration workflow to reconcile MMM/DDA/holdouts, recommended holdout designs for mid‑market merchants, and a RACI governance checklist for sign‑offs and measurement health monitoring.
