First Touch Program & Campaign

Lead Liaison uses a concept of a "First Touch" to track the first marketing Program/Campaign a prospect first comes in contact with. First Touch is critical to measuring marketing ROI. Many organizations look at the "last touch campaign" which may have prompted the prospect to take action; however, First Touch Campaign helps a marketer identify which marketing efforts were instrumental in getting the prospect into the top of the sales pipeline. After the First Touch Campaign Lead Liaison continues to track Campaign touches to provide marketers with a high-level view of how their efforts influenced a prospect's purchase. 

Below is a list of how First Touch Campaigns are tracked in order of priority. For example, if a prospect clicked a link in an email campaign that was sent as a stand alone email message then the First Touch Campaign will be the name of the Email Campaign (#2 below). However, if the email was part of an Automation Campaign (sent via the Send Email action) then the First Touch Campaign would be the name of the Automation Campaign (#1 below) since Automations are a higher priority than standalone emails.  

A Prospect's First Touch Campaign and First Touch Program can be seen in one of the following ways:
