Overview
An event is any interaction of an account with your company, such as clicking a button, submitting a form, or viewing a page. By tracking events, you can identify areas where you need to improve your website or marketing strategy to increase conversions and revenue.
Along with the many behavioural events Factors tracks across your marketing channels, you can also set up specific behavioural events that are important to your individual marketing and sales process as Custom Events. An example of a Custom Event for your organisation could be a conversion of a lead from MQL to SQL which you can set up according to your internal definitions.
