QA AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Accuracy before speed; structured evidence before assumptions

A concise checklist for display, video, mobile, marketplace, and commerce-linked campaigns.

Campaign

Goal, order details, dates, budget, line items, priority, frequency, geo, device, audience

Creative

Correct version, dimensions, format, CTA, click-through, brand/policy review, approval status

Destination

Working URL, redirects, mobile experience, offer consistency, product/inventory readiness

Measurement

Conversion action, analytics, UTMs, attribution view, reporting fields, test event where available

Delivery

Eligibility, pacing, bid/priority logic, audience size, inventory, status, first-spend check

Discrepancy

Define source of truth, time zone, date range, filters, data latency, attribution, invalid activity, rounding

05

REPORTING AND RECONCILIATION

Make delivery explainable

Reporting should show what happened, why it happened, what could affect the outcome, and what action comes next.
