SOME POWERFUL WAYS TO USE TAG MANAGER
Data Layer
This is how GTM talks to your page. You can talk to it too. Use it to be a Tag Manager Whisperer.
Form Abandonment
Something hard becomes easier with a bit of JavaScript in Tag Manager. Know where people leave forms.
Environments
Test different container versions in different places before you go live with them like a friggin’ boss.
3rd Party Tags
GTM natively supports a bunch of pre-configured tags from other companies like LinkedIn, CrazyEgg, Salesforce, and more.
Scroll Depth
A couple tags and some JavaScript and suddenly you can see how far down any page people scroll, automagically, site-wide.
Variables
There’s so much more to variables than just constants and lookup tables. SO MUCH.
