From ad click to qualified lead: How Sissel works
Follow the data from a consented website visit to a CRM outcome, an attribution decision and optional conversion delivery.
The complete path
Sissel brings website visits, customer outcomes and ad-platform data into one explainable chain. Each stage remains separate: observing a visit is not the same as identifying a person, crediting a campaign is not the same as proving causality, and connecting an ad account is not the same as sending conversions.
- 1Record the visit
Keep the landing page, referrer, campaign parameters and supported ad click identifiers when collection is allowed.
- 2Link the visitor
Connect the browser journey to a known person using explicit identity evidence.
- 3Receive the outcome
Bring in a lead, stage change, sale or value from a CRM connector, Zapier or the public API.
- 4Apply the attribution rule
Evaluate eligible touchpoints inside the configured lookback and store the credited result with its model.
- 5Show the evidence
Make the visit, identity link, outcome, credit decision and exclusions inspectable as a chronological journey.
- 6Send only what you choose
Route selected outcomes to an ad platform after testing and an explicit live activation.
What Sissel records from a visit
A source-bearing visit can include UTMs, referrer information, the landing page and supported advertising click identifiers. The consent state travels with the event so collection and later delivery can be evaluated separately. If your site requires consent and it has not been granted, Sissel does not quietly turn that unknown state into permission.
How a visitor becomes a known person
Attribution needs a trustworthy bridge between a browser journey and the later CRM result. That bridge can be a signed tracking token, normalized email or phone, a source-scoped external ID, or an explicit server-to-server identity call. The source of the link is retained so it can be inspected later.
If the CRM outcome has no usable identity, Sissel can retain the outcome but cannot invent the website journey that belongs to it. That distinction prevents a CRM record from being presented as campaign evidence when no link exists.
How credit is decided
The workspace defines an attribution model and a lookback window. For every outcome, Sissel checks the known person’s touchpoints before the outcome, removes those outside the window, and applies the selected model. The stored result includes the model, lookback and reason, making the decision reproducible rather than a hidden score.
Delivery is a separate decision
Ad connections can import account structure and spend while every outcome remains set to Not sent. When you choose an outcome for delivery, Sissel checks the route, consent, required identifiers and platform age limits. Attempts, failures, suppressions and retries remain visible.
A stable delivery identity prevents an ordinary retry from quietly creating a duplicate result. Enabling live delivery requires a separate review, so reading data from an account never becomes production activation by accident.
