Higher Logic Thrive Marketing Enterprise (Thrive Marketing Enterprise) gives you the ability to integrate with your Salesforce CRM so that information on leads and contacts will flow both ways, allowing your organization to quickly identify the best opportunities.

NOTE: These instructions are for the basic integration, which does not include marketing automation. However, the basic integration is required as a prerequisite for the more robust marketing automation integration. See Integrating with Marketing Automation Campaigns with Salesforce for integration details.

NOTE: This article references Real Magnet and RM. Real Magnet is a previous name of Thrive Marketing Enterprise, which continues to use legacy settings under that name.
