How to Connect to an Email Service Provider

How to Connect to an Email Service Provider

OptinMonster makes it easy to connect with one of our many native integrations. Seamless integration with many Email Service Providers (ESPs) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools is available.

In this article, you’ll learn how to get started connecting OptinMonster to an Email Service Provider.

Before you start, as a best practice we recommend you also connect your campaigns to Monster Leads as a backup.

Some integrations require a minimum subscription plan. Check the ESP’s dedicated guide for the minimum plan requirement.

Add Integration

When you create a campaign in OptinMonster that you intend to collect leads with you’ll want to integrate with one or more services to send those leads to.

To get started connecting to an Email Service Provider, navigate to the Integrations view of the campaign builder, search for and select your Email Service Provider.

Add your Email Service Provider to OptinMonster.

For a full walk-through of connecting OptinMonster with your specific Email Service Provider, please see the dedicated guide for that ESP.

OptinMonster has transformed our business. Before integrating their optins, our clients saw a 2% conversion rate from web traffic, which is slightly above the standard for their industry. With the integration of OptinMonster’s lightbox popup, exit-intent technology, split testing, and other tools, our client’s conversion rates soared by an unprecedented 500%. They attracted substantially more customers while spending less on digital advertising. Their success propelled them to the top of their markets, outperforming national chains and other medical spas with much bigger marketing budgets. Our client’s success in their market has distinguished us in our own. We are now one of the most sought-after marketing firms in the industry of aesthetic medicine. We know that the integration of OptinMonster, more than any other tool or marketing strategy, has supported this growth and achievement.

Through OptinMonster’s exit-intent popups, we have more than doubled our sales conversion rate. Best of all is the compound effect of using OptinMonster over a long period of time—more conversions mean more customers, which means more word of mouth.
