Adding Trackable Links and Images to Social Media Posts

Lead Gen & CRM's social media tools enable you to add images and trackable links directly in the posting window.

With trackable links, you have access to additional benefits that are not available for regular links.

Trackable links can be used as a trigger, can show analytics on who engaged with your links, and much more.

This article will detail how to add an image or Media Center trackable link to your social posts.
