# Mark a Social Marketing Campaign as Complete

Before a social marketing campaign can be marked as complete, all required sections must be finished. PEARS validates each section and displays any outstanding items.

## Completion Requirements

The following must be satisfied before marking a campaign as complete:

* **Program Areas** -- At least one program area is selected.
* **Collaborators** -- Collaborators have been configured.
* **Market Segment Reach** -- Market segment reach data has been entered.
* **Potential Reach** -- Potential reach data has been entered.
* **Evaluation** -- You have indicated whether an evaluation was performed (Yes or No).
* **Custom Data** -- Organization-specific custom data is complete (if applicable).
