Connect your Facebook page to create social posts and Facebook Ads through Constant Contacts

Sync a Facebook page, or an Instagram business profile that's connected to a Facebook page, to your Constant Contact account so you can start creating social posts, monitor the conversations, respond to comments, or create Facebook and Instagram Ads

Important: This article covers connecting your Facebook page and includes the option to connect an Instagram business page that's connected to your Facebook page through the Meta Business Suite. In order to create Facebook and Instagram Ads or Lead Ads, your Instagram business profile must be linked to your Facebook account. If you have an independent Instagram business page that's not connected to a Facebook account, follow these steps to connect Instagram instead.

By connecting your Facebook page to your Constant Contact account, you can create posts, share emails and events, view your public-facing posts and reporting statistics, respond to comments, and create Facebook Ads and Lead Ads. If your Instagram account is connected to your Meta Business Suite, you can create social posts and ads for Instagram too! Connect a single Facebook account or connect multiple accounts with multiple pages—all you need is the login credentials for each account you want to connect.

1. Click Marketing channels > Social posts or Channels > Social.
2. Click the Accounts tab.
3. Click the Connect Instagram button.
   Note: You can connect to a standalone Instagram account and LinkedIn too!
   
   
   
   
4. If you're not already logged into your Facebook account within the same browser, you're prompted to log in. If you're already logged in, skip to step 5.
   
   
   
   
5. Click the Continue as [name] button. If you have multiple Facebook accounts, you can switch to a different account from here too.
   
   
   
   
6. Select the Facebook pages you want to sync and click the Continue button. These are the pages you can use to create social posts for.
   
   
   
   
7. Select the business manager account you want to sync and click the Continue button. The business manager account is used to create ads and lead ads.
   
   
   
   
8. (Optional) Select the Instagram business accounts that you want to sync. When your Instagram account is synced to your business manager account, you can also create social posts and ads and lead ads for Instagram.
   
   
   
   
9. Review the app permissions and click the Save button. This allows Constant Contact permission to integrate with your account to create posts and ads, and import engagement activity. This doesn't give Constant Contact permission to access any of your personal account information or to post to your personal profile.
   
   
   
   
10. Select the business profile you want to connect and click the Add selected button.
    
    
    
    
11. From the Select a Profile overlay, select the Facebook page or pages you want to connect and click the Add selected button.
    
    
    
    
12. Your account is successfully connected and you can either click the + Connect account button if you have multiple Facebook accounts to connect, or click the Done button to return to the Social dashboard.
    Note: If you connected an Instagram account, you can see it by clicking the Accounts tab and clicking the "Manage accounts" link in the Instagram tile.
    
    
    
    

Once your Facebook and Instagram accounts are connected, you can create and share a post., but please note that posts can't be created for direct messages, groups, or communities. Then, after your posts are published, you can review what kind of engagement you're getting and respond to likes and comments too!
