Use list growth tools

We have tons of tools that you can use online or in-person to grow your list! We break them down into two sections so you can see the tools that are the most essential, but you can also see the rest of the different ways you can grow your list; some tools even allow you to collect SMS contacts too! Don't be afraid to try something new:

  • Apps - If you have contacts in other platforms, you can easily import them into Constant Contact through a variety of apps and integrations.
  • Ads - Ads let you pick your demographics to reach a targeted audience and specify an ad budget on Facebook, Instagram, and Google. Every ad allows you to specify a URL that you want your target audience to interact with. The link can be a page on your website with an embedded sign-up form, or a link to your Sign-up Landing Page.
  • Landing pages - A Sign-up Landing Page is the quickest and easiest way to entice contacts to join your list online. And it's SMS compatible! Just create your landing page, then share the URL anywhere!
  • Lead magnet - Lead magnet helps you turn your social media contacts into email marketing contacts, giving you more control over how you can share your content with them!
  • QR codes - Each Sign-up Landing Page that you create has a unique QR code assigned to it. You can use the QR code image in your print media, include it in emails and social posts, or share it anywhere else online to point your audience back to your landing page.
  • Social media - Social posts get your sign-up form in front of an audience that you don't really have any control over and turn it into subscribed contacts that you can manage with segmentation and targeted content.
  • Text-to-join - When you register for SMS marketing, it gives you the ability to collect contacts that opt into both email and SMS marketing from wherever you are. You can share the instructions in a physical location or online!
  • Website forms - These sign-up forms can be embedded on your own website, and you can customize the sign-up messaging depending on the page content. We offer banner, flyout, inline, and pop-up form styles.
