What is a tracked share link?

A tracked share link is a URL pointing to a hosted version of your document or presentation that records engagement when someone opens it — instead of a file you attach to an email and lose sight of.

How it works

You upload the deck to a hosting tool, which gives you a link (ideally a unique one per recipient). When someone opens that link, the viewer records events: the open, how long they actively read, which slides they spent time on, and whether they finished — the basis of presentation analytics.

Why use one

• Attribution — know who engaged, not just that “someone” did.
• Control — password-protect, expire, or revoke the link after sending.
• Always current — recipients see the latest version, no re-sending.
• Signal for follow-up — engagement tells you when and how to reach out.

In short: an attachment is fire-and-forget; a tracked link is a two-way channel. See it applied to proposals.
