Getting Your Campaign Started Follow

Hi there!

If you have accessed this article it is probably right to assume you need some help in getting your campaign up and running. Whether you are a complete newbie or a seasoned Convertr user, the information in this article is a great reference point for any campaign.

All Convertr campaigns are built up of the same fundamental components; as long as these components are within your campaign you are well on your way to success within the platform. 

The recommended steps below highlight these components. As long as you ensure you have each of the below, you will have a working Convertr campaign in no time. Then you can add on and build more advanced campaigns as you wish! Each step below contains links to step-by-step documentation for each process. If you are unsure or get stuck please ask your CSM or our Support Team.

 


 

Recommended Steps

You may not need to do every step below for every single campaign, but we do recommend checking they are complete to ensure smooth end-to-end campaign setup.

Campaign Prerequisites

The below components are required before your campaign can be setup fully:

👥 Advertiser Setup

The Advertiser can be the client or endpoint accepting the leads. Adding your Advertiser is the first step in campaign creation. If your Advertiser is already created you can skip this step!

📝 Form Setup

The form will capture your lead data. Whether you are importing, sending in leads via API, or using our live forms, you will always need a form. Add or edit a form that you need to use for your campaign.

Campaign Setup

Once the above steps are complete, your campaign can be setup by following these recommended steps:

⚙️ Create Campaign 

Use the Duplicate Campaign functionality to create your new campaign. You can duplicate a Master campaign, a previous campaign, or from a similar campaign for another advertiser/client. The 'Create Campaign' feature is also an option. However, it is more efficient to copy a pre-existing campaign because this process can copy across other configurations such as Processr jobs, Value Transforms, Publisher Payout Bands and more.

Please note: Duplicating a campaign will create a brand new campaign - you will not edit the original campaign that you duplicated.

🔗 Associate Form

Link your form to your newly created campaign to allow lead delivery to funnel into the correct location.

Please note: When duplicating a campaign, you may have already selected to include a form during the duplication process. We recommend confirming the form is correct and updating as needed.

🤖 Update Rules and Filters

The Processr is the brain of the campaign, and a job is the term we use for the rules and filters in your campaign. In getting your campaign started ensure that the Processr is updated and has all the required jobs for your campaign to process your leads in the desired output.

Please note: When duplicating a campaign, QA jobs from the original campaign will be automatically pulled across. We recommend confirming these jobs are correct and update as needed.

🪧 Update Integration

An integration is the method of sending your leads to an endpoint. You may have duplicated this across from another campaign, or you may be creating a new one. Either way, navigate to Processr > Integrations to update or add your required integration.

Please note: When duplicating a campaign, integration jobs from the original campaign will be automatically carried over. We recommend confirming these jobs are correct and updating as needed.

Optional: At this stage, it can be a good idea to test your campaign runs as expected (see the 'Send Test Leads' step below) to catch your campaign configuration is correct, before publishers are assigned and lead delivery begins on the campaign.

👥 Assign Publishers

Publishers perform the delivery of leads into your campaign. This can include multiple sources such as LinkedIn or a Publisher delivering you leads. You will need to ensure you have a Publisher assigned to your campaign - even if you are uploading your own leads, ensure you add yourself as the Publisher or Lead Generator.

Please note: You may have selected to duplicate this across from your previous campaign; if so, update the key campaign details as needed

Additionally, once a Publisher is assigned to the campaign and signs their contract, they will be able to start delivering leads. If you do not want them to deliver leads until a set time we would advise pausing assigning them until you are ready.

✅ Send Test Leads

Finally, submit your test leads through your campaign. This ensures that you have set up the campaign exactly as expected.

Please note: If you wish to test leads without sending tests to your endpoint, integrations can be temporarily disabled.
