- **Step 4: Kickoff Call Scheduling**

- **Step 4: Exception Alerts & Internal Reviews**
- Set up performance alerts (e.g., if a client's cost-per-lead spikes by $20 or campaign spend hits 90% of budget prematurely) so your account managers can intervene before the client notices or before the automated monthly report goes out.[[1]](https://adzooma.com/blog/introducing-automated-alerts-for-performance-issues/)[[2]](https://www.leadsquared.com/learn/process-automation/trading-partner-management/)
