# Making Updates to your Campaigns

> Learn how to duplicate a campaign, apply and publish changes when you want to update your copy and creative.

# Overview

When optimizing your referral program, it’s important to measure how changes to your campaign affect [key metrics on your dashboard](/guides/platform-overview/program-and-campaign-dashboards). To accurately test and compare results, we recommend creating a new campaign whenever you want to try new copy or creative.

# Duplicate a Campaign

1. Go to the [Programs page](/guides/platform-overview/exploring-the-programs-page).

2. Hover over the campaign you want to copy and click the Duplicate icon.

3. Alternatively, from your Program Dashboard, click the three dots next to the campaign and select Duplicate.

4. A new campaign will be created with the same name.

5. Go to the Basics tab to edit the Campaign Name and Description so you can easily distinguish it from the original.
