This article will showcase how to get your contacts from Art Storefronts to Constant Contacts. For this you’ll need:
Zapier is a platform that allows you to connect different platforms. You can connect contacts from your email marketing platform to your Marketing platform and so many other connections. Just to mention a few, you connect Google Forms, Active Campaign, SalesForce, Zendesk, Microsoft Office, Shopify and so on. Please find more info here: https://zapier.com/explore
Our recommendation is to have Mailchimp as the native Email Marketing platform. Since all your contacts in Art Storefronts are synced to Mailchimp, we are now going to connect Mailchimp with Constant Contacts
To achieve this, please make sure you are logged into your Mailchimp, Zapier and Constant Contacts account and follow these simple steps:
1.Login to your Zapier Account (www.zapier.com)
2.From your Dashboard, Zapier will ask you the apps that you’d like to connect. Please select the source as Mailchimp and the destination to be Constant Contacts.
3.The next step will choose the trigger or simply, what happens after the two are connected. Please choose New Subscriber

8.If the connection was successful, Zapier will let you know that they found a contact. Please click on Continue.
