If you use Constant Contact to send your broadcast emails you’ll probably want to push leads gathered during your KickoffLabs campaign there to build your newsletter.
This document will walk you through the process of linking your KickoffLabs account with Constant Contact via Zapier connection.
In this doc, we’ll cover:
- Pushing leads from KickoffLabs into a Constant Contact list via Zapier
**Please note the Zapier integration is available on KickoffLabs paid plans.**
Pushing Leads From KickoffLabs Into a Constant Contact List
- Open your KickoffLabs campaign.
- Select Setup > Integrations > Zapier
- Choose the app you’d like to connect your KickoffLabs campaign to (Constant Contact).
- In Zapier, you’ll be prompted to set-up what trigger/action you’d like for your flow. This will vary user to user, but the most common set-up is when there’s a new lead created in KickoffLabs > Create a contact on a Constant Contact list. Configure your trigger and action then select the orange “Connect KickoffLabs + Constant Contact” button.
- Started” button and connect your KickoffLabs campaign. You’ll now be prompted to enter your campaign id and API key. These can be found back on the right side of your KickoffLabs Account Zapier settings.
- After connecting your KickoffLabs campaign, Zapier will prompt you to connect your Constant Contact campaign/account by entering your login credentials.
- Once you’ve connected the Constant Contact account, you’ll be prompted to select the Constant Contact list that you’d like to push KickoffLabs leads into. Select the list and click “Next.”
- Next, we’ll select the fields we’d like to push into Constant Contact. This varies user to user, but some of the most common to push over are first/last name and phone number.
- Next, we’ll map the Constant Contact fields with the corresponding KickoffLabs fields.
- Test out your zap to make sure everything is flowing correctly. You should see your test lead in your Constant Contact list. If all is good, continue on to turn on your zap! Leads will now begin flowing automatically into your Constant Contact list as they sign-up.
Troubleshooting
If your Constant Contact integration isn’t working correctly (leads aren’t being added to your Constant Contact list) try the following steps:
- Check to see if your Constant Contact double-opt in mail is turned on. If the verification is turned to on, leads will need to click the mail in order to be fully added to your Constant Contact list. This can be customized from your Constant Contact settings here.
- In KickoffLabs, check the lead card to see if the lead is marked as fraudulent. By default we don’t pass flagged leads through integrations (to keep your list clean and bounce rate low). The lead can be checked from the lead section of your campaign and will display a pink caution triangle.
