How Do I Change the Campaign Objective?

Short Answer: After creating your campaign, you can change its objective by selecting a new marketing objective. For example, you can update it from having no marketing objective selected to choosing leads as your new campaign objective.

Full Explanation

When you initially create a campaign, it may start without a defined marketing objective. However, once the campaign is set up, you have the flexibility to adjust the objective according to your marketing needs. Changing the campaign objective is straightforward and involves switching from a state of no objective to a specific goal such as generating leads.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

  1. Create your campaign without selecting a marketing objective or with a default one.
  2. Access the campaign settings to view existing configurations.
  3. Locate the marketing objective option within the settings.
  4. Change the objective from “no marketing objective selected” to “leads” or another available objective.
  5. Save your changes to apply the new campaign objective.

Real Examples

For instance, if your campaign was initially created without selecting a marketing objective, you could later revise it to focus on generating leads. This adjustment helps tailor the campaign’s aim and optimize its effectiveness in reaching the desired outcome.
