Marketing activities are the central point of your marketing workspace, representing repeatable units of work that engage with customers and strengthen your brand presence.
Marketing activities, often referred to as tactics, can range from publishing an Instagram Reel weekly to sending out a monthly newsletter. They are linked to properties, which are in turn connected to marketing channels.
