Promote your organization and grow your list through social media channels, like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, all from within your Constant Contact account

Connect with friends and followers

Social media marketing stands apart because you get to stay involved in the conversation as it's happening in real-time. By creating posts and responding to comments, you control the narrative and show your supporters that you find their feedback as valuable as their praise. Our Social Posts and Monitoring tools help you:

  • Create and schedule posts for Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn
  • Create individual posts for each platform or one post to share across multiple platforms.
  • Schedule a series of posts in advance.
  • View engagement activity with your posts.
  • View and respond to comments.

Grow your contact list

Growing your contact list is important, but don't measure your success by the number of contacts on your list! If you can fill your list with people who really want and value your content, your emails are going to perform better. We have tools to help capture Facebook and Instagram users who visit your page, and the ones who haven't found you yet:

  • Create ads on Facebook and Instagram to collect new subscribers.
  • Customize the target audience for your ad based on the demographics that are most important for your organization.
  • Target your ad to Facebook and Instagram users who look like your current contact list.
  • Follow up with your new leads by sending them targeted email content.

Our Sign-up Landing Pages can also help capture new subscribers on social media! Just copy the URL and share it in your Instagram Bio, the Introduction Card in your LinkedIn profile, or add a Sign-up button to your Facebook Business Page.

 

 

Advertise your organization

You don't have to rely on your friends and followers to spread the word about your organization on social media! Advertising on social media helps you get your content in front of just the right audience, so you have a better chance of finding new customers and supporters from the vast sea of social media users:

  • Create ads on Facebook and Instagram to drive traffic to a webpage of your choosing.
  • Customize the target audience for your ad based on the demographics that are most important for your organization.
  • Target your ad to Facebook and Instagram users who look like your current contact list.

  • Share an email or share an event on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn.
  • Schedule a series of posts in advance.
  • View engagement activity with your posts.
