Use Cases and Who It’s For
This add-on is designed for business owners, marketers, and developers who rely on Constant Contact for their email marketing and want to streamline their lead generation process. If you are a small business owner, you can use this to automatically capture leads from a “Request a Quote” form, ensuring you never miss an opportunity to follow up with a potential customer.
