Step 3: Set Conversion Tracking and Strategy

Choose the conversions you want to track to monitor campaign performance. You can remove any unnecessary conversions or keep all of them (recommended). In the beginning, it’s generally better to focus on any conversions. Later, you can set a recommended conversion price. If you want to focus solely on new clients, configure the audience based on successful actions. Importing customers from your CRM can be beneficial for service-based industries where successful bookings may vary.
