A lead who hears from you while your ad is still on their mind is far more likely to open, reply and buy. If your email marketing runs on Constant Contact, the fastest way to get there is to have every Facebook lead added to Constant Contact the moment they submit your form, so your welcome email goes out straight away.
This guide shows how to send Facebook lead ads to Constant Contact step by step, in about three minutes, with no CSV exports and no Zapier. Then it covers which fields carry over, how permission works, and what to check if a lead doesn't appear.
Facebook keeps instant-form leads in Leads Center, so you need a tool to send them to Constant Contact. In LeadSender: connect Facebook, choose Facebook Leads to Constant Contact, pick your Page and form, click Connect and allow LeadSender in Constant Contact, choose your lists and tags, then turn it on. Every new lead becomes a Constant Contact contact within seconds.

Added in secondsWhich fields reach Constant Contact
- Email, which Constant Contact needs for every contact. A lead without one can't be added.
- First and last name. A form that only asks for a full name is split into first and last name.
- Phone, company and job title, in Constant Contact's own contact fields.
- Street, city, state, ZIP and country, saved together as the contact's home address.
- Your custom fields, including dropdowns, numbers, dates and yes/no fields. An answer that isn't one of a dropdown's choices is left out instead of failing the whole lead.
In Constant Contact, create a welcome automation triggered when a contact joins the list you picked here. Every Facebook lead then gets your first email within minutes of submitting the form.
Will Facebook leads get your Constant Contact emails?
Yes. Leads are added the way Constant Contact adds people from its own sign-up forms, so they get permission to email. If your account has Confirmed Opt-In switched on, Constant Contact first sends each new lead a confirmation email, and they start receiving your campaigns once they confirm. Make sure your lead form's privacy policy says you'll email people who submit it.
LeadSender vs Zapier vs CSV imports
| LeadSender | Zapier | CSV import | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | From $9.99/mo | From $29.99/mo (Facebook Lead Ads is a premium app) | Free |
| Speed | ✓ Seconds | Depends on plan | ✗ Whenever you remember |
| Setup | ✓ About 3 minutes, guided | ⚠ Build and test a Zap | ⚠ Every time, by hand |
| Several lists and tags | ✓ Pick from your account | ⚠ Set up in the Zap | ⚠ Per import |
| Failed leads | ✓ Reason and retry in Run history | Zap history | None |
Short version: CSV imports work for a handful of leads, but every hour of delay costs replies. Zapier works if you already pay for a premium Zapier plan. LeadSender is the quickest way to get every lead into Constant Contact the moment it comes in. More in LeadSender vs Zapier.
When a lead doesn't show up in Constant Contact
