You will then see a screen that looks like this:
First, you should give your Campaign a name.
You also need to choose if you would like it to be ‘Active’ or ‘Inactive’ by clicking the toggle - this means the same as ‘Visible’ or ‘Hidden’
If needed, you also have the option to choose any collaborators to have access to the Campaign, i.e. who can edit it and have visibility of the candidates that are linked to it:
🌐 How To Create A Campaign Landing Page
You have two options when creating a landing page:
- You can create a Landing Page as part of the Campaign set up process
- You can create a Standalone Landing Page which you can link to a campaign at a later date or use as a template for future landing page
➡️ Creating A Landing Page Linked To A Campaign
In order to create a landing page that is linked to a Campaign, select the Campaign you would like to link it to by simply clicking anywhere on it:
Once selected you will be taken to a screen that looks like the one below, you should click the ‘+’ symbol to add a landing page which will take you to a screen where you will be given the option to either attach a previously created Landing Page or to create a new one:
“Froala” refers to the old editor that has been used on Campaigns since it was first launched on Tribepad. This has been included in this new iteration of Campaigns to provide consistency if you have created campaigns using the old tool before.
Editing any existing landing pages that has been previously created using “Froala” (the old editor) will not incorporate “Content Box” the new editor, as such editing existing content will bring up the old editor which will look like the image below:
Clicking the ‘+’ symbol on a new landing page will bring up a screen that looks like this:
Select “from scratch” to create a new Landing Page (if you would like to use a previously created one - select the relevant one from the list).
From here, you can fill in the details of your landing page:
- First make sure to toggle the “Editor Type” to “Content Box”
- Give your Landing Page a title
- Give your page a description (if needed)
- Select your Goal Type - What would you like to achieve with it?
- Add any tags (if needed)
- Set a PIN (if needed - as this will only allow people with the pin to view)
- Press Save & Continue to go to the Landing Page Site Editor
➡️ Creating A Standalone Landing Page
In order to create a Standalone Landing Page that you would like to link to a Campaign at a later date or clone, first head to “Campaigns”, and “Landing Page Templates”.
Next you will need to hover over the “+” icon in order to create a new page.
You will then be taken to the following page where you can set up your landing page:

➡️ Goal Types In More Detail
For more context, giving your landing page a goal will give it a purpose:
When selected, each goal type will do something different in the ATS:
➡️‘None’ - A landing page with no goal (1) can be created to give information only and doesn’t need the candidate to do anything.
When selecting this option, there are no further fields to fill in (2).
➡️‘Login/Register’ - The purpose of this type of landing page is to get candidates to login or register on your ATS (1).
🟣 Tags - If needed you can add in Tags (ones that have been set up already in your ATS):
🟣Questionnaires - If needed, you can link a questionnaire to your landing page - candidates that are invited to the campaign will then be asked to complete this.
For more information about Questionnaires, 🖱️click here.
🟣 Mark Candidate As Internal - If needed, you can mark your candidates as Internal once they access the ATS:
🟣 Redirect URL - You may need to redirect your candidates to another URL away from the ATS. To do that, simply paste your URL into this box here:
➡️ ‘Apply’ - The purpose of this Landing Page is to link to a specific Active role on your ATS, which candidates will be able to directly apply to.
🟣Job - In order to link an active job role to your Landing, click on the drop down menu and select the relevant one:
If needed, you can also add Tags or mark your candidates as Internal as detailed above.
➡️ ‘Apply Through Job Search’ - The purpose of this Landing Page is to allow you to guide candidates towards specific roles through the presence of keywords, country, location etc.
🟣 As above, you can add Tags here and make your candidate internal.
🟣You can also include Internal jobs and show jobs that are marked ‘visible to no-one’ on the ATS.
🟣You can then add keywords and other filters to narrow down the jobs that are presented to candidates on the landing page.
🟣And finally, you can also add a PIN to a landing page if you wish, as well as a Linked message:
The Linked message refers to Marketing messages - these are set up separately and can be linked to a specific page --> More on this further down in the guide.
Once you are happy with your setup of the landing page, click ‘Save and Continue’.
🎨 Adding Content To Your Landing Page
Once you have set up and saved the previous information, you will be redirected to the Campaigns editor:
In order to start editing your Landing Page, you have several options running down the left-hand side of the page:
➡️ Sections

By clicking these icons you will see various edit options which allow you to do different things such as:

➡️ Content Blocks
Content Blocks are generally used as connecting sections between Sections when creating pages.
To add them, they should be dragged into the relevant position on the right-hand side.
They are edited and amended in the same way as Sections, using the icons on the right side of the block:

👫 Inviting Candidates To Your Landing Page
Once you have created your landing page, you are able to invite candidates to it.
To do this, you should hover over the ‘Share’ icon on the right-hand side (1):
You will then see three options (2):
- Open in new tab
- Copy link
- Invite from CV Search
The two main ones you are likely to use are ‘Copy link’ and ‘Invite from CV Search’.
If you copy the link, you can share this in email communications with relevant candidates.
If you select ‘Invite candidates from CV Search’, this will open up the “Candidate Search” section of your ATS.
From here, you can use the 🖱️ Talent Search function as you would do normally in your ATS:
- You can filter using the options on the left-hand side
- You can search for candidates with certain skills or keywords at the top of the page
- You can look for specific names using the toggle at the top of the page
Once you have located the relevant candidates, tick the tick boxes next to their names (1) and then select ‘Invite’ above the candidate names (2):
The screen will refresh and you will see a pop-up screen:
This email will need to be edited here before you send the invitation to the candidate(s).
If needed, this email can be populated as a template, in order to do this you will need to create one under your ‘Ad Hoc Email templates’ section in your ATS. and select the relevant one at the top of this screen:
Alternatively, you can simply use the free text email body to write your message:
Once your email has been sent to your candidate(s), the screen will refresh and you will see a pop up saying “Completed Successfully” to confirm that the action has been completed:
To exit this screen, click on the ‘X’ in the upper right corner.
From there, you will be returned to the Landing Pages page in the ATS:
To see which candidates have been invited to view a landing page, click into the landing page itself.
The screen will refresh and you will see a page that looks like this:
Initially you will not see any views or clicks as you have only just invited your candidates.
However, as time goes on, the section at the top of the page will eventually show you how many views, clicks, sign-ups etc. you have had as a result of your campaign:
To see the candidates that you have invited to view your campaign, scroll down to the bottom of the page:
If you want to invite more candidates to the campaign, simply select the share icon at the top of this section and repeat the sharing process (1):

The screen will refresh and you will see a page that looks like this.
To create a new message, click either the ‘+’ symbol (1) or the ‘Create New’ button (2).

🟣 You can then give your message a goal - this links into the goal that you have already chosen for your Campaign Landing Page
- None
- Login/ Register
- Apply
- Apply through Job Search
🟣 You can then give your email message a subject (1) which will be shown to the candidate(s), and create some content using the free text field (2):
🟣 You can also add in the candidate’s first name, surname and salutation if you wish, using the buttons shown above.
Finally, you can choose when and how you would like your marketing message to be sent:
If you want to send when the recipient is added to the campaign, choose the first toggle.
If you would like to send a message on a specific date, choose the second toggle. This will then allow you to choose which date you prefer:
If you would prefer to send your message after a delay, select the third toggle. You can then choose how many days after the candidate was added to the campaign, that this message will go out:
You can then choose to send the marketing message via email or SMS.
Once you have saved the details of your message, the screen will refresh and you will see something that looks like this:
As highlighted above, you can see when the message will be sent out, and how.
You then have the ability to send follow-up messages to this first one, if you wish.
To create these, click on the ‘+’ symbol on the right-hand side of the page:
The screen will refresh and you will see another pop-up. Here you can create the details of the follow-up message.
You will notice that these initial actions are largely the same as the last ones:
If you scroll down the page though, you will see an additional set of toggles:
Here you can choose whether to send the message to everyone, or only if previous goals have not been achieved:
- ‘Unconverted’ - the message will be sent if the candidates have not completed the goal from the previous message
- ‘Unopened’ - the message will be sent if the previous message has not been read by the candidate
- ‘Clicked but not converted’ - the message will be sent if the candidate has read the message, has clicked onto the ATS, but has not completed the requested action
- ‘Converted’ - the message will be sent if the previous goal has been completed.
Once saved, the screen will refresh and you will see your new follow-up message shown underneath your original marketing message:
Once you have created a message, if you want to link it to your campaign, i.e. ensure that all candidates who are invited receive an initial message, you can go back into your landing page, edit it and add in a Linked message:
