# **What is the Generate Marketing Audit Workflow Action**

The Marketing Audit Report Generation workflow action allows you to automatically create a Marketing Audit Report for every new lead (contact) added to your sub-account. With workflow automation, you can instantly enrich new contacts, understand their online presence, and personalize follow-up outreach — all without manual effort.

To use this action, ensure the Prospecting Tool is enabled and subscribed on your sub-account.

**Note:** Previously, marketing audits could only be generated for leads created inside the Prospecting Tool. With this new workflow action, you can now generate audits for any contact from any source — Facebook Ads, funnels, forms, imports, integrations, webinars, or any other channel.

Generate Marketing Audit Report

## **Action Description**

This workflow action automatically generates a Marketing Audit Report for a contact by using the details available in their profile, such as:

-   Business Name
-   Website URL
-   Address
-   Email
-   Phone Number

The more complete the contact’s information is, the more accurate and detailed the audit will be.

### **What is Marketing Audit Report**

The Marketing Audit Report is a powerful, automated snapshot of a business’s local marketing presence. It analyzes key areas like business listings accuracy, website performance, Google Business Profile , SEO rankings, and online reputation. 

These insights help you identify gaps in your online presence, understand what’s impacting your growth, and take informed next steps — making the report useful for improving performance, onboarding new customers, or planning future marketing efforts.

1.  Your sub-account must have an active Prospecting Tool subscription.

## **Duplicate Prevention**

For contacts originally created by the Prospecting Tool, we automatically prevents:

-   Duplicate marketing audit reports
-   Re-triggering the same audit workflows

This ensures clean data and avoids unnecessary audit generation for leads already handled by the Prospecting Tool.

---

## **Where to Find the Generated Audit**

Once the workflow runs:

1.  Navigate to Marketing → Prospecting Tool (if can't see 'Prospecting' tab: it's probably prospecting is not enabled for your account).
2.  Open the Prospecting tab.
3.  Search for the specific prospect/contact.
4.  You’ll see the newly generated Marketing Audit Report for that contact.

## **Example**

#### **Use Case:** Audit Every New Lead Automatically

You want to audit all new contacts coming in — from Facebook Ads, funnels, events, referrals, imports, or anywhere else.

1.  Create a workflow with Trigger: Contact Created.
2.  Add the Generate Marketing Audit Report action.
3.  Publish the workflow.

Now, every new contact added to your CRM will automatically:

-   Have its business details analyzed
-   Receive a custom Marketing Audit Report
-   Appear inside the Prospecting Tool for review

This gives your team immediate insights and helps tailor outreach to each lead’s current marketing performance.
