When to use it, when not to

  • UseUse it for a lightweight pulse on inbound account creation trends, especially after a campaign or list-import push.
  • UseUse it to spot a spike in a particular industry worth a follow-up push or a change in targeting.
  • SkipDo not use it as a substitute for a full attribution report. This counts company creation only, not source or campaign.
  • SkipDo not use it on a portal where companies are created almost exclusively through bulk import rather than organic inbound activity. The weekly count will mostly reflect import timing, not real trends.
