These days, companies find themselves using multiple software tools because one tool doesn’t fits all their use cases. Everyone has a favorite way to connect different apps and automate routine tasks as part of either elaborate business workflows or single action triggers.
One of our favorite ways to connect and automate our work is Zapier. The work is done effectively, saves hours every day, and all activity is documented. If you haven’t tried it, Zapier is the tool that allows you to connect different apps together so that a process in one app will trigger an action in another. Those triggers are called "Zaps," and you can "Zap" almost anything!
Here are some examples of awesome Makesbridge Zaps that are popular means for connecting your favorite apps together, or, in some cases, to themselves (more on that later).
Make sure you're marketing to qualified contacts and Look-Alike audiences by adding marketing qualified leads you created on Makesbridge to a Facebook Custom Audience. Once this integration is active, Zapier will automatically add warmed leads - such as email openers, clickers, web visitors, or any condition you create in Makesbridge - to a Facebook Custom Audience so your ad targeting can help hone in those qualified people and more people like them.
Note: A Facebook campaign can only be run if all its segments have over 300 leads combined.
