What are predictive metrics in GA4?
"What are predictive metrics in Google Analytics 4 (GA4), and how do they help businesses anticipate user behavior? Which predictive metrics are available in GA4?"
Predictive metrics in GA4 are powered by machine learning to help businesses anticipate user behavior and take proactive actions. These metrics include:
- Purchase Probability: The likelihood that a user will make a purchase within the next seven days.
- Churn Probability: The likelihood that a user will stop engaging with your site or app.
- Predicted Revenue: The estimated revenue that a user or group of users is likely to generate. These insights can be used to create more effective remarketing campaigns, improve customer retention, and focus on high-value users. GA4 automatically calculates these metrics based on historical data, making them a powerful tool for data-driven decision-making.

If you plan email marketing campaigns you are interested in the same as with other campaigns, to measure their impact on your business. When you are starting with this topic it is good to know that without additional effort you will not be able to access this impact. You will see no results because Google Analytics will treat traffic from the email campaigns as direct traffic (when users are using your own app) or as referrals (when users are using web email clients).
