Hey all,  
I’m after a little bit of help, we are trying to build a dashboard that holds the below report, but I’m finding it trickier than expected to set it up properly.

- LinkedIn Page Follower growth by month, ideally with a goal of 100 new followers per quarter

Hi @jimboroberts,

In the custom report builder in HubSpot, there is no data source for social media data – which means that we’re ‘stuck’ with the out of the box reports: [Analyze social reports](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/social/analyze-social-reports)

Some of these can be saved to a dashboard. Configuration options (visualization, goals) are unfortunately limited or non-existent.

Best regards!

thanks, Karsten, I did think this would be the case. I guess the best way is to probably use an external reporting tool, and get that report imported into the dashboard. Something like Databox for example?

Creating a dashboard report for LinkedIn Page follower growth by month with a quarterly goal can be a little tricky in HubSpot because the platform doesn’t natively pull month-over-month follower data into custom reports the same way it handles contact or website analytics.
