Drip is an automation service for online marketing campaigns. This platform makes it possible to create and launch mailings through various channels of communication with the audience, as well as collect and analyze their statistics. In addition, it allows you to automate activities to promote a product or service, create lead forms, perform audience targeting, and receive reports. In our article, you will learn how to set up Drip and Facebook integration to automate the transfer of leads from a social network to the service database for running marketing campaigns.

If you use Facebook Lead Ads to promote goods or services and the Drip service to conduct marketing campaigns, most likely you have to manually add each new lead that comes from the social network to your subscriber base. Automated transfer of potential customer data from one system to another will significantly facilitate the work process and save a valuable resource – your time. By connecting both platforms, you will see an increase in personal and team productivity. Our online connector, SaveMyLeads, will help you with this. Having correctly configured the Facebook and Drip integration, you get the transfer of leads' data into the database of the service for running marketing campaigns. You will automatically receive new subscribers to your promotional mailing list. This way, you can get rid of the need to manually enter the first name, last name, phone number, and other data of a potential client. As a result, you will optimize your workflow, and the customer will be satisfied with the quick feedback you provide them.
