MHub CRM's Facebook integration works seamlessly using the available Facebook API from Facebook. When you connect your Facebook account, you are able to:
- Automate lead generation from your Facebook form to MHub CRM
- View ads from your Facebook campaigns (insights)
MHub CRM will take all your connected leads and ads into account, adding them up to an overall sum so you are able to see the performance of your MHub campaign in the campaign listing section and Marketing reports section.
