Facebook is the most popular social network in the world. The impressive reach makes FB one of the main marketing tools. It is difficult to find an effective business that does not use Facebook advertising opportunities. FB advertising and lead forms allow you to promote a company or product, as well as increase your customer base.

Often, orders through social networks are emotional in nature, so the user's interest in a product or service can quickly decline. It is important to establish communication with the client as soon as possible. One of the easiest and most effective ways is to send an email, for example, with information about the acceptance of the order and the delivery date.

The MSG91 cloud service offers a whole range of tools for customer service and interaction with them. Using this platform, you can implement email newsletters. The MSG91 service offers a wide range of templates as well as analytics tools. If you create an integration between the Facebook advertising account and the MSG91 platform, you can provide automatic email distribution for each new lead from the social network.
