Your marketing team is probably flying blind on at least a third of your traffic. Not because you're doing anything wrong — because UTM tagging is tedious, inconsistent, and easy to skip when you're moving fast. RevenueKit's UTM Builder fixes that without adding work to your plate.

Messy UTMs Are Costing You Real Money
Poor campaign tracking is a revenue problem, not just a reporting problem. If you can't tell which email drove conversions or which form submission came from paid versus organic, you're making budget decisions on incomplete data.
According to HubSpot's marketing statistics roundup, only 61% of marketers say improving SEO and growing their organic presence is their top inbound marketing priority — and yet tracking that traffic accurately remains a widespread blind spot. UTM parameters are the fix, but only if they're applied consistently.

What Is the UTM Builder?
The UTM Builder is a RevenueKit feature that lets you generate properly tagged URLs and audit how UTM parameters are being used across your HubSpot account. It handles two jobs: building new UTM links and checking the ones you already have.
You fill in your campaign source, medium, campaign name, and optional term or content fields. The tool generates a clean, correctly encoded URL ready to drop into your emails, ads, or social posts.
No spreadsheets. No manual string-building. No typos that silently break your attribution.

How Does It Work Inside HubSpot?
RevenueKit connects directly to your HubSpot account and reads your existing emails and forms. When you use the UTM Builder, it doesn't just hand you a link — it also checks whether links inside your HubSpot assets are already tagged, partially tagged, or missing UTM parameters entirely.
HubSpot has solid documentation on tracking URLs and how they feed into campaign analytics. RevenueKit layers on top of that native functionality to surface gaps you'd otherwise have to find manually.
The result is a complete picture of what's tracked, what's not, and where to fix it first.

The Audit Feature Is Where It Gets Good
Most UTM tools stop at generation. The audit capability is what separates RevenueKit's UTM Builder from a basic URL shortener. Scanning your HubSpot emails and forms for UTM coverage means you're not just building better links going forward — you're catching the ones that slipped through in the past.
Think about how many campaigns your team has sent in the last 12 months. Now think about how many of those links were tagged perfectly, every time, by every person who touched them. The audit closes that gap.
You can explore the full docs to see exactly what the audit scans and how results are surfaced inside the dashboard.

Why Does UTM Consistency Matter for ROI?
Inconsistent UTM tagging corrupts your attribution data, which corrupts your budget decisions. If a campaign looks like it underperformed because half its traffic landed without UTM tags, you might cut spend on something that was actually working.
Data quality issues cost organizations an average of $12.9 million per year, according to Gartner research on data quality. UTM gaps are a direct contributor to that number inside marketing teams.
When your UTM data is clean and consistent, you can actually trust your HubSpot campaign reports. That means smarter spend, better attribution, and a clearer line between marketing activity and revenue.

Who Should Be Using This?
If you send HubSpot emails, run paid campaigns, or use forms to capture leads — this feature is for you. It's especially useful for teams where more than one person creates and sends campaigns, because inconsistency compounds fast across multiple users.
HubSpot's academy has a great primer on campaign tracking fundamentals if you're newer to UTM strategy. The UTM Builder assumes you know what UTMs are and just want to use them better, faster, and without the usual chaos.
Marketing ops folks will get the most out of the audit. Campaign managers will love the builder. Both teams win.
