      • Click Authorize

      What Happens Next After Integration

      Wicked Reports will pull all historical lead data from SalesForce to seed your account attribution.  This allows us to correctly identify these leads as already existing leads in the event they click, optin, or otherwise engage with your marketing funnels.  We can then attribute revenue to their actions using the correct attribution models.

      Each morning at about 2am EST we will pull the previous day's new leads and attribute the marketing responsible for creating these new leads.  Anytime in the future when these new leads buy, we can attribute the revenue back to the marketing that created the lead and update the ROI accordingly.

      Once you have authorized your order systems, we will pull sales & revenue data and then create cohort reporting between your SalesForce lead data and your order revenue data.

      Historical Tracking Data Pre-Wicked

      Facebook Lead Ads - Attribution, and CRM Import

      Wicked Reports can automatically attribute Facebook Lead Ads once you have also completed the Facebook Integration steps.  We can even historically attribute Facebook lead ads, pre-Wicked Reports, following these instructions:  Backloading Historical Facebook Lead Ad Attribution

      One older feature we still offer is the ability to automatically import your Facebook lead ad leads to your CRM.  This functionality is available for SalesForce if desired. We realize most people have this functionality built into their CRM now, or use Zapier, but the feature is here if you need it.
