How to Build a Campaign Tracker in HubSpot for Monthly Reviews
Chief Revenue Officer
Listen to the Blog
Because you can’t improve what you’re not tracking. Most teams run campaigns. Few review them properly.
If your monthly campaign recap sounds like:
“We sent some emails, got clicks, maybe a lead or two...”
—you’re missing the full picture.
With the right HubSpot campaign tracker, you can:
- Track every asset, channel, and result
- Attribute pipeline and revenue
- Review insights in one dashboard
Here’s how to set it up.
Step 1: Use HubSpot’s Campaigns Tool (the right way)
Start by creating a Campaign in HubSpot for every initiative:
- Give it a clear name:
July_Webinar_LeadGen - Tag all related assets: landing pages, emails, forms, CTAs, ads
- Set goals and dates
This groups everything for reporting automatically.
Step 2: Set UTM Parameters for Every External Link
Any traffic-driving asset (ads, social, blog CTAs) should use UTMs:
utm_source(e.g. LinkedIn)utm_medium(e.g. paid, email)utm_campaign(match your HubSpot campaign name)
HubSpot captures and maps these values to contacts, so you know what drove results.
Step 3: Track Engagement Metrics Inside the Campaign
The Campaign dashboard will now show:
- Views and submissions
- Email opens and CTR
- Ad clicks and spend (if integrated)
- Contacts influenced
- Deals associated
Pro tip: Filter by date or lifecycle stage for more profound insight.
Step 4: Create a Monthly Campaign Review Dashboard
Build a custom report or dashboard that includes:
- Contacts generated per campaign
- Deals created + closed per campaign
- Revenue by campaign
- Average time from form to deal
- Win rate by campaign
Use these for your monthly marketing + sales sync.
Step 5: Include Campaign Tagging in Deal Properties
To tie revenue back, we recommend:
- Creating a custom deal property: “Primary Campaign Source”.
- Using workflows or manual tagging to assign this.
- Filtering reports by this field
This helps bridge marketing actions with sales outcomes.
Final Thought
Campaigns aren’t one-time events—they’re systems that create compounding results. Tracking them properly in HubSpot helps you double down on what’s working—and cut what’s not. Don’t run another campaign without a tracker in place.
