Published March 22, 2026

One webinar should map to one campaign key; vary source/medium/content to explain which promo drove each registrant.

Overview

Use a stable utm_campaign per webinar series plus date stamps if you repeat formats.

Why it matters

Partner promotions should use distinct utm_source values to honor co-marketing SLAs.

Implementation playbook

Reminder emails are a separate medium (`email`) from the initial invite—keep both.

Next steps

After the event, archive the taxonomy entry so reporting stays reproducible next quarter.
