Salesforce Campaigns Foundations to learn how to create a salesforce campaign in
Salesforce Campaigns are a group of contacts and leads who have been exposed (orally or in writing) to a particular marketing message.
It tracks key performance indicators and allows salespeople immediately to know which prospects and clients have received marketing messages.
Here are some of the things that you can do with Salesforce Campaigns.
You can measure the success of your marketing efforts.
Salespeople can view a complete list of marketing messages sent to prospects and customers in the past.
Find out which Leads or Contacts have replied to marketing emails or other messages.
Summarizing campaign results makes them easy to understand.
Salespeople can easily add Leads and Contacts to upcoming events, webinars, and any other activity.
You may have noticed that there’s not much about delivery.
Salesforce Campaigns cannot physically deliver emails or other communications. This is because Salesforce Campaigns is not able to do so.
They are nevertheless crucial in measuring and presenting various results.
Here’s how Salesforce creates campaigns.
To create a Salesforce campaign, click the Campaigns tab. Click the New button to the right.
Create a new Salesforce Campaign using the Lightning Interface.
You must check the Marketing User box to True if you do not have the authority.
This feature is available in the User record.
You can activate the Salesforce Campaigns creation ability of the Marketing User.
Ask your system administrator to modify your User record.
It is possible to modify the Campaign object or page layout.
To reflect the activities that your company engages with marketing, you can modify the Type field.
To reflect the marketing activities of your company, use the Salesforce Campaign Type Picklist.
You can also delete some of the optional fields from the page layout (for more information, see our Section on metrics).
Example of Salesforce Campaign
Here’s an example Salesforce Campaign. This is a webinar that we hosted earlier in the year.
GSP’s Sales Dashboard offers excellent visibility into your pipeline and provides metrics that show how you are performing.
For more information, visit AppExchange.
This is an example Salesforce campaign.
It is easy to see the name and date of the webinar. It was also given a Type so that all webinars could be grouped in Salesforce dashboards and reports.
The name, type, and date of a Salesforce Campaign.
We use GoToWebinar for hosting webinars. Pardot is used to send invitation emails to Leads and Contacts. The Campaign in Salesforce still contains all the crucial metrics that will ensure the webinar’s success.
Let me explain how these systems interrelate. Let’s begin with some KPIs for a Salesforce Campaign.
Salesforce Total Members highlights specific metrics on a Campaign.
The total number of Contacts and Leads that are associated with the Campaign. Below this, we can see the values of Leads and Contacts.
Campaign Reactions. This number is vital. This shows how many people responded in the desired way to our marketing communication.
Campaigns offer opportunities. This marketing action offers many opportunities.
Value opportunities are an important part of a campaign. The Campaign’s monetary value.
During the campaign, I was successful in securing a variety of opportunities. These opportunities are related to the Campaign.
Place a high value on the opportunities won during the campaign. These Closed Won opportunities are worth a lot.
Now you might be asking:
How do you calculate the number of respondents? How does the relationship between campaigns and opportunities work?
They’re excellent questions.
Let’s start with the most basic.
Different people respond to different forms of marketing activities. They may click a link in an email but register for a webinar.
To understand the relationship between Salesforce and the Responded number, we will need to describe how Salesforce Campaign Members work.
Salesforce Campaigns Members Defined
Campaign Members describe the relationship between a Lead or Contact and Salesforce Campaigns.
It helps to keep track of how the relationship has changed over time, which is crucial for creating Salesforce marketing reports or dashboards.
This webinar is an example of how it works.
Example of a Campaign Participant
These are the steps we use when hosting webinars.
Decide which leads and contacts you want to invite.
To send an invitation email, use Pardot
Some people register.
Some people show up at the webinar. Some people fail to attend.
Let’s now see how it works with Salesforce Campaigns.
We add people to the Campaign in the first phase. They are given a Not Sent Campaign Member status.
We intend to send invitation emails but have not yet sent them. This indicates that the Campaign’s status is “Not Sent” for these Leads or Contacts.
It’s now time to send the email. At the same time, we change the status to “Sent”. Pardot uses an automation rule to achieve this.
Some people register. GoToWebinar allows you to do this. Pardot receives this information and changes the Campaign Member Status to Attending.
Participants who registered for the webinar either show up or do not show up on the scheduled date. GoToWebinar recognizes this and changes each participant’s Campaign Member Status from Attended to No Show.
Anyone can unsubscribe at any point during the process. We also have status.
Everything has been going well so far. What does all this have to do with the Campaign’s Responded numbers?
Everything is dependent on the answer.
The relationship between opportunities and campaigns
Salesforce Opportunities and Salesforce Campaigns can be linked in 2 ways.
Converting a Lead is a challenge.
Fill in the Primary Campaign area when a new opportunity arises.
Convert Leads
When you convert a lead, you are creating an account, contact, and, if necessary, an opportunity.
Convert a lead into a contact using the Salesforce lightning interface
The Campaign Member record describes each Salesforce campaign’s relationship to a Lead/Contact.
When this happens, the Opportunity is linked to the latest Salesforce Campaign. This is done through the Primary Campaign field.
Based on the Salesforce Campaign that preceded, the Primary Campaign Source has been automatically linked to Opportunity.
It doesn’t matter if the person participated or not in the Campaign. You cannot change the system’s presumption that the latest Campaign resulted in Opportunity creation.
Many marketing professionals are unhappy. Many marketing executives are dissatisfied with the lack of Campaigns-linked opportunities from Leads that they have converted.
It happens because of this.
The Lead is made into an Account, then a Contact. The checkbox “Do Not Create Opportunities” is checked.
You can avoid creating new opportunities by checking the box ‘Do Not Create a New Opportunity upon Conversion’.
The salesperson qualifies for the deal. If it seems like a good idea, she generates an Opportunity.
Unfortunately, the Campaign and the Opportunity are not linked anymore.
What is the final result?
The Marketing department is unhappy because they don’t know if their campaign generated quality leads. It is easy to understand their frustration.
