How did you find out about us? question on my website

Hey there!

I’d like to place a post-purchase “how did you find out about us?” question on my website. Is that possible and would google analytics be able to associate the responses with the purchases that were made? I.E. I would hope to be able to see the form responses and the associated orders values in the google analytics accounts.

If not, if anyone knows how to add a “how did you find out about us?” question onto the cart or checkout pages I’d be very happy for any info.

I have a shopify 2.0 theme (Prestige). Really appreciate any help you can give me!

@monicaRB on your GA question (because it wasn’t answered), you can technically do it, fire a custom event with the answer and pass the order value as a parameter, but it’s fiddly to set up and the responses end up sitting in GA separate from your orders, so you’re always stitching two reports together. The cleaner version is to have the answer written directly on the order itself, then you just filter “how did you hear about us” by order value in Shopify and see which sources actually bring in bigger orders vs a pile of cheap one-offs.

the thing that surprised me doing this on my own store though: the channel on its own barely tells you anything. “google” might be someone typing my brand name in, which is basically a sale i already had, or a cold product search i paid for. same word, completely different value. so i started asking one short follow-up after the first answer, just “what made you choose us?”, and that’s where the actual signal is. Honestly, even if you don’t want another app, going through your last 20-30 orders and asking that by hand will tell you more than the pie chart ever will.
