| --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

## Example

Your campaigns generated **847 leads** across all channels last month:

| Platform    | Leads   | % of Total |
| ----------- | ------- | ---------- |
| Meta Ads    | 412     | 49%        |
| Google Ads  | 298     | 35%        |
| TikTok Ads  | 137     | 16%        |
| **Blended** | **847** | **100%**   |

## How It Works

Blended Leads aggregates lead conversion events reported by each connected advertising platform. When a user completes a lead action—form submission, newsletter sign-up, quote request, or contact inquiry—that's attributed to an ad, each platform reports it as a lead. This metric sums those leads across Meta, Google, and TikTok to give you a unified view of lead generation performance.
