i have red a few posts but I found no conclusion for myself.
I want to have a relationship between Campaign Member and the Account of the Contact, who is a Campaign Member in this Case. It should be like the lookup ContactID for example.
Atm I have only a field which shows the name of the company of the contact, but that is not really good link..
Thanks in advance.

They'll be different. If you were just displaying the ID, that could be a formula field. To have it be a link to the Account, it'll need to be a lookup field and then you'll have to use process builder to populate the Account anytime a Campaign Member is created using a Contact.
So, your process builder would run on the Campaign Member record and the criteria would be if the Contact ID is populated (Thus, we know the Campaign Member is a Contact and not a Lead), then populate the Account lookup field and reference the Contact's Account ID as the value to use to determine which Account gets populated in the lookup field.
