Autoresponder Emails for Meta Leads

One of the most powerful ways to generate leads with Facebook Lead Ads is by offering a compelling lead magnet—something free that encourages your audience to submit the lead form. This lead magnet typically takes the form of a free PDF guide, informative video, or other valuable download.

To automatically follow up with Facebook leads using an email autoresponder, you usually need to invest in an email marketing platform like Mailchimp or manually send each follow-up email. However, with LeadSync, you can streamline this process. LeadSync provides a simple and effective Facebook leads autoresponder that instantly follows up with new leads via email.

Whether you want to send a quick “Hey, we’ll be in contact shortly” message, deliver your lead magnet (such as a PDF), link to a video, or offer another type of valuable content, LeadSync’s autoresponder has you covered.

This powerful tool helps you maintain prompt communication with your leads, ensuring they receive the information they signed up for without delay. With LeadSync’s Facebook leads autoresponder, you can focus on innovation and conversion, while the system handles the follow-up process seamlessly.

Add the email content you’d like to send to your Facebook lead. Again, you can include tokens to include data from your lead form.

Autoresponders need to be applied to an existing email connection. Be sure to apply the Autoresponder to an existing connection.

5. Add an attachment (optional)

If you want to deliver some sort of lead magnet that you’ve promised as part of your Facebook ad, here’s where you can attach a PDF.

  1. From the Connections section, add multiple connections for each Facebook Lead form you’ve setup.
