Manage Campaigns

Here is what you need to know about campaigns in Bionic for Agencies.

Campaigns represent the advertising campaigns you are working on for your company or your client. They are like a folder - everything related to that campaign will be stored within it. It can house various information about the campaign to share across the team, including the brief. It will also be where the media plan, orders, performance data, and billing information will reside.

The campaign will also be where you can establish customized settings to ensure your costs, data points, integrations, KPIs, and tasks are all included and tracked.
