HubSpot Campaigns

Track complex campaigns with one source of data.
Too often, marketers need to pull customer data from several sources to create targeted and personalized campaigns, resulting in a disjointed and frustrating customer experience. Marketing Hub is the only marketing automation platform built on top of a CRM. Which means not only are all of your campaign tools in one place, but all of your customer data is, too.​

Access real-time campaign reporting.
Marketing and Sales all need to pull static reports from different systems and cobble them together in a spreadsheet to measure impact. This means campaigns aren’t optimized until it’s too late. Equip every team with the power to measure, iterate, and optimize campaigns based on real-time performance insights.

Campaign Assets

Adding assets to a campaign to track can be done in two places

  • In the settings for the asset such as landing pages, social posts, emails and CTAs
  • From the Campaign “ADD ASSETS” button in the campaign planning and reporting section in HubSpot
  • HS will suggest a campaign based on the content you are creating.

It is important to be intentional when creating and choosing campaigns.
Some assets, once a campaign is chosen, do not move data from one campaign to another. For example, once a social post is placed in one campaign. If it is in the wrong campaign, when it is move the data will not move with it and it will result in 2 campaigns reporting incorrectly.

If you are asked to create a CTA, landing page, social posts, etc and do not know where which campaign it belongs in:

  • Ask the AM
  • Add it to no campaign and let the AM know it needs to be selected before publishing

Campaign Applications

Campaigns are useful for organizing and reporting on specific goals and campaigns.
