RevOps maximizes revenue and growth through operational efficiencies and alignment of all teams, systems, and processes with an extraordinary focus on revenue and your customers.

Curious which of your ads are leading to revenue? Want to know which channel has the highest conversion rate?

UTM parameters allow you to measure and analyze your website conversions at a more granular level, providing marketers a great way to track the effectiveness of their channels, campaigns, and content. 

UTMs provide you with significantly more visibility into your revops metrics. When you capture and report on UTMs in HubSpot, you're able to: 

• Identify the specific assets, ads, and campaigns that are driving the most revenue
• Uncover the source of a specific conversion, i.e. how your prospect got to your website for the specific conversion session
• Enhance your multi-touch attribution

By simply adding hidden fields on your forms and including some additional information in your URL link, you can quickly and easily begin capturing this essential data.

A/B testing (or split testing, if you prefer) might be the most underutilized tool marketers have today. Consider, in less than 3 minutes you can:

• Set up a test to see if your call-to-action could be more powerful
• Try two great layouts on your landing page
• Test out both of your catchy subject lines.

An A/B test means showing two versions of the same website page, email, or blog to visitors simultaneously and measuring performance for both variations. The version that performs better wins, it's as simple as that.

HubSpot's CRM and automation software tools make it easy to perform an A/B test on nearly every piece of digital marketing collateral, from website pages to emails, to ads and CTAs.
