Using the Marketing Calendar

On occasion, it can be difficult to keep track of all the marketing activities that have occurred or are scheduled. To help keep you organized, your Act-On account can provide you with a snapshot of all your marketing activities within the Marketing Calendar page.

This page shows all previously sent messages, scheduled messages, and webinars (via the integration with WebEx Event Center, Citrix GoToWebinar, and Zoom).

Clicking on any of your marketing activities will provide greater detail of the activity - things like a preview, links, share channels, event details, etc.
