JJ Reynolds, a Hawaii native with a knack for storytelling and a keen understanding of digital analytics, brings his unique perspective and wealth of experience to the table. With a ‘B.S. in BS’ (read: communication degree) under his belt, he’s managed substantial ad budgets and worked with production companies and ad agencies before choosing to delve deeper into the digital analytics world. Frustrated by clients who couldn’t see ‘what is happening,’ he founded Mediauthentic to present not just numbers, but the story behind them.
Stockton Fisher, a near-accountant turned marketing maestro, shares his vast knowledge gained from diverse experiences such as being a product manager at Funnelytics and the marketing director for an eight-figure ecommerce brand. Recently stepping into fatherhood, Stockton is well-known for his love of teaching and educating others about tracking and measurement. Joining forces with Mediauthentic, he continues to provide world-class measurement systems to clients while maintaining his passion for teaching.
In 2022, we decided to take all of that knowledge and experience and create Better Than Data so that we could help data professionals like you to achieve success on a global scale. Better Than Data quickly became our full-time business and we’ve now helped countless professionals to master the art of data storytelling. And we seriously love spending our days supporting our members!
Both JJ and Stockton bring their love for what they do and their infectious enjoyment to every lesson, making learning not just informative, but fun!

"I highly recommend "Better than Data". Whether you are a beginner, experienced marketer, or webmaster, you will find valuable information and insights that will help you.
JJ and Stockton are truly dedicated to helping their members succeed and it shows in everything they do from the lessons to membership calls. Their foundation series offers great video lessons which are short and casual, but complete. The length makes it easier for me to fit into my schedule.
They also stay on top of the issues such as Google limiting access to some of their APIs."
Digital Analyst | Digital.Galanti
"I really like JJ and Stockton's way of going deep. I have collected many interesting ideas and new ways of doing some things compared to before, both on the GA4 and GTM side but also on other things such as ideas on strategies and tactics in Looker Studio. I really like the informal style and practicality of the guys. I also find the Slack channel dedicated to subscribers very interesting.."
