How to Build Marketing Dashboards Fast with DashThis

DashThis tutorial

DashThis is a reporting tool that lets you connect your marketing data sources and build dashboards quickly. In this tutorial, I walk through how to create two dashboards, one for Google Ads and one for Google Analytics 4, so you can see how the tool works and decide if it's a good fit for your reporting workflow.

What's covered in this tutorial

The tutorial covers two dashboard builds. The first uses a pre-built Google Ads template to get up and running quickly. The second starts from a blank dashboard and uses widget bundles to add Google Analytics data, then expands to include Google Ads data in the same report.

Along the way, you'll see how to use AI Insights to surface patterns and opportunities from your data, how to add your own commentary to the dashboard, and how to set up automatic email sharing so reports go out to clients or stakeholders without any manual effort each month.

DashThis also lets you save dashboards as reusable templates. This is useful if you manage reporting for multiple clients or want to standardize your reports across different campaigns or business units.
