Constant Contact Autoresponder Integration

Modified on Thu, 9 Jul at 4:48 PM

Overview

Integrating Constant Contact with FlexiFunnels allows you to automatically collect leads, add contacts to your email lists, apply tags, and trigger email marketing campaigns whenever someone submits a form or purchases a product.

There are two ways to use Constant Contact with FlexiFunnels:

  1. Standard OAuth Integration (Recommended) – Connect your Constant Contact account securely using the authorization flow.
  2. Custom HTML Form Integration – Use an embedded Constant Contact signup form (if supported by your workflow).

The Standard Integration is the recommended method because it provides seamless synchronization, list management, and product automation.

In FlexiFunnels, one can collect leads using two options.

 

1 - By integrating an Email Autoresponder Software with FlexiFunnels.

2 - By using Custom coded form generated in a Users Email Autoresponder Software.

 

Let's cover the first option, in which we will explain how one can integrate an Email autoresponder software in FlexiFunnels 


STEP 1 - Connect your Email Autoresponder with FlexiFunnels Account by going above process step by step. (Standard Integration)  

 

STEP 2 - Once you have connected your email autoresponder with FlexiFunnels. 

Now connect a “form” element in a landing page with an email autoresponder.

 

In order to connect a “form” element with Autoresponder, one needs to create a landing page inside a project.



Click on the “+create new project” button.

 

Click on "Projects” displayed on the FlexiFunnels Dashboard Screen.

Click on the "+create new" button displayed on the Projects Screen.


Then type your "Project name" and click on the "+ADD project" button  


After completing these steps.

Select the Landing Page category

We have Different Landing Page Template Categories and Different Templates in Each Category 

Select Your Landing Page Category


Then select the preferred template for your landing page 

After selecting the Preferred Landing Page Template

The Screen will look like this


You have successfully created a Project in FlexiFunnels with a Landing Page.

 

Now, Click on the "Edit Page" Button.

 

Click on the sidebar “plus” button and select the “forms” option under components to add forms inside the FlexiFunnels Page Editor.


Once a “form” element is imported into the FlexiFunnels editor, click on the “form” element gear icon settings to open the form element gear settings  


After opening the “Form” element gear settings, click on Advanced Settings, as shown in the image above.

 

Then select the “Connect with autoresponder” option from the Dropdown.

 

Then click on the “connect here” button

 

After clicking on the “connect here” button, select your autoresponder connected in the FlexiFunnels autoresponder settings 



Choose your email list from the dropdown. (optional)

 

And write down the tag to be passed in the autoresponder tags field. (optional)

One can pass multiple tags here.

 

Click on the “save” button.

When successfully connected, it will show “active.”


Here, your autoresponder is connected with the FlexiFunnels “form” element. 

 

Now, you can publish the landing page, using the “publish” button at the top, and start collecting leads.

 

The leads submitted on the published page will be directly reflected in your email autoresponder software connected with the “form” element.



In a similar way, you can connect the rest of the autoresponders.
