Constant Contact is an easy-to-use email marketing platform designed to manage your leads and clients efficiently. Now you might want to move email campaign data to a data warehouse where you can analyze the hidden patterns, trends, and insights. Since various tools are creating different data silos in use, it makes generating reports and analyzing these data difficult and time-consuming. Replicate Constant Contact data to Redshift and ensure that you have access to analysis-ready data at any point in the data warehouse. Also, having your Constant Contact data in the same data warehouse as your ads, marketing, service, and support will help you get a complete and clear understanding of your business processes.

Why integrate Constant Contact into Redshift?

Integrating Constant Contact data to Redshift will allow you to view this data alongside marketing, service, or CRM data and uncover insights that matter. With Constant Contact integration, you can not only automate the internal processes but you can unearth insights that can help you make smarter decisions, optimize processes, and generally serve customers better.
