Campaigns can be created by:

1. Account Admins
2. Account Managers
3. Account User (needs approval for campaign to be started)

To start a new campaign:

1. Click "Create Campaign" on the Campaigns Tab.  
   ![create-campaign](https://help.beyondlocal.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/create-campaign.png?width=688&height=248&name=create-campaign.png)
2. Enter in a new Client. Only Admins and Managers are able to create new clients. If they have already done this, Account Users can select the client from the list.![add new clients](https://help.beyondlocal.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/add%20new%20clients.png?width=688&height=605&name=add%20new%20clients.png)
3. Enter in a campaign name, based on your own naming convention. We recommend keeping it consistent over all clients. Example: XYZ Business - Austin, TX.![Campaign name](https://help.beyondlocal.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Campaign%20name.png?width=688&height=613&name=Campaign%20name.png)
