How to attribute Google Ads in Copper

If you cannot tie Google Ads spend to pipeline and Closed Won in Copper, you cannot scale confidently. Copper is where your team tracks pipeline and revenue.

When you attribute Google Ads in Copper, you can connect every Person and Opportunity back to the original campaign and keyword, compare ROAS by campaign, and prove what creates customers.

In this article, we will show how to use Attry to attribute Google Ads in Copper and which reports to build for a complete picture of performance.

What is Attry?

Attry is a lightweight script you add to your site. It detects where a visitor came from, normalizes it into channels like Paid Search, Paid Social, Organic Search, and stores the data in a cookie while the visitor browses.

On form submit, Attry writes the attribution into hidden fields so it travels with the Person or Opportunity into Copper. It also records the first landing page and landing page group. If your forms are inside iframes, Attry’s iframe adapter injects attribution safely inside the iframe.

4 steps to attribute Google Ads in Copper

Attributing Google Ads in Copper is simple with Attry. Follow these steps:

1) Add UTM parameters to your Google Ads

Tag your final URLs consistently so each visit includes a clean source pattern.

https://yourcompany.com/demo?utm_medium=paidsearch&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=brand-us&utm_term=keyword-or-adgroup&utm_content=creative-a

utm_medium = paidsearch
utm_source = google
utm_campaign = campaign name
utm_term = keyword or ad group
utm_content = creative

2) Add hidden fields to your forms

Add hidden fields so Attry can write attribution on submit.

Channel
Channel Drilldown 1
Channel Drilldown 2
Channel Drilldown 3
Channel Drilldown 4
Landing Page
Landing Page Group

3) Install Attry on your site

Place the Attry snippet in the <head> so UTMs and click ids are captured before forms load.

4) Attry writes Google Ads data into the hidden fields

On submit, Attry injects the full attribution:

Channel = Paid Search
Channel Drilldown 1 = Google
Channel Drilldown 2 = Brand US
Channel Drilldown 3 = Creative A
Channel Drilldown 4 = Creative A
Landing Page = /demo
Landing Page Group = demo

5) Use the data inside Copper

Once attribution is saved on each Person or Opportunity, you can:

Show attribution on People and Opportunities so sales sees context for every inquiry.
Build dashboards that group Opportunities and revenue by campaign and keyword.
Compare CPL, CPP, and ROAS by campaign to reallocate budget.
