What is a campaign?

A campaign is the next level in the ad hierarchy, housed within an advertising account. It represents a specific marketing objective or goal. For example, a business might have separate campaigns for brand awareness, lead generation, and product sales. Campaigns allow you to organize your advertising efforts and allocate budget and resources accordingly.
