Mainly, we will be able to analyze on which page the taiwan cell phone number conversion has been made . And this is something interesting when we have forms on many pages, as happens in the education sector , where each course has a page with a form.
If, on the other hand, we direct the user to a thank-you page , we will see in Google Analytics 4 that all conversions occur on this page. Without giving us a clue as to which pages have received the most conversions.
How to track this message
Let's see what trigger we need to create to do the tracking, since this same trigger can be used for a GA4 event, a Google Ads conversion or a Social Ads event .

Element visibility GTM
Element Visibility Trigger Settings
