ConnectLeads Review
ConnectLeads is a new Facebook advertising app that helps you automatically add Facebook users directly to your email lists through Facebook Lead Ads. Here’s our ConnectLeads review.
What is ConnectLeads?
ConnectLeads is a recently-released app that helps you efficiently extract data from Facebook Lead Ads.
Facebook Lead Ads lets you add new subscribers to your email lists without forcing those users to ever leave Facebook. You can convert someone onto your email list from inside Facebook using Lead Ads.
Best of all, users don’t even have to type in their email address: the system identifies the user’s primary email address linked to their account, which means your mail gets sent directly to where it needs to go.
Basically, Lead Ads lets Facebook users easily access offers via advertisements. When users open these ads, their information is already automatically filled out onto the form. You see your full name and email address, for example, without needing to type anything in. Then, if you decide to accept that offer or that newsletter subscription, you just press confirm. Your information gets sent to the advertiser.
There’s one big problem with Lead Ads: all of the subscriber data from Facebook is exported to the advertiser via a .csv file, which advertisers then have to download via the ads manager. You then have to upload the new subscriber data to your auto responder to get the new leads properly added to your subscriber list.
As the creator of ConnectLeads explains, “this can add significant time, workload, and increase the risk of human error.” ConnectLeads claims that the entire process takes anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour, and it may need to be done on a daily basis if you’re continuously running Lead Ads.
This is a problem ConnectLeads seeks to solve.
Basically, ConnectLeads lets you take full advantage of Facebook’s new Lead Ads feature. Even if you know nothing about Facebook ads or Facebook PPC, ConnectLeads claims to help you maximize the power of Lead Ads and turn that into real profit for your business – or lower costs for your clients.
ConnectLeads Features
ConnectLeads calls itself an “intelligent automation” system. It connects directly with your autoresponder via the Facebook Ads platform API.
Then, you can use the ConnectLeads interface to manage all coordination between your autoresponders and Facebook Lead Ads accurately and efficiently. ConnectLeads claims to work with virtually all major autoresponders and CRM service providers.
Some of the features in ConnectLeads include:
-ConnectLeads handles everything involved in getting new subscribers added to your autoresponder from your Facebook Lead Ads with no delays
-The platform gives you a full array of custom data management functions and capabilities (future updates should expand these capabilities even further)
-Easy setup process, where you select the desired Lead Ads and set up your lists with just three taps
-Customizable field mapping capabilities
-Prospects can sign up for email lists or even sign up for things like webinars without ever leaving Facebook
-Real-time data and analytics lets you see how many new leads you are netting on a daily basis and more
-Add extra fields or questions to your Lead Ads from the ConnectLeads interface, and then watch this extra data be added to your data feeds (this can help you segment your leads even further once the customer information arrives through ConnectLeads)
-Updates and new features are delivered over the cloud, which means you never have to download or install new versions of the software
One of the advantages of ConnectLeads is that mobile users typically aren’t willing to type in their email address to receive a certain offer or join a list. With ConnectLeads, even Facebook mobile users can just tap to instantly subscribe to something or access an offer. There’s no manual data entry required.
Ultimately, all of these features promise to help you leverage Facebook’s mobile (and desktop) traffic, reduce your costs, and increase conversion rates.
CRM and Autoresponder Compatibility
ConnectLeads is compatible with almost all popular autoresponders and CRM services. New systems are being added all the time. Some of the listed supported services include all of the following:
-HubSpot
-GetResponse
-MailChimp
-HTML Forms
-MadMimi

-UpViral
-ConvertKit

And more (others are being added constantly, and you can also email support@connectio.io to request an autoresponder get added to the list).
How to Buy ConnectLeads
ConnectLeads is available on a monthly, yearly, and lifetime subscription package. Since the system was just released, all prices are “introductory” prices. The maker of ConnectLeads appears to be preparing to raise prices in the near future:
-Monthly: $27 per month
-Yearly: $97 per year
-Lifetime: $197
Payments can be processed using all major credit cards.
The monthly and yearly prices should stay the same, but the Lifetime offer, which is currently at $197, is expected to rise in the near future.
ConnectLeads isn’t the only service offering to take your Facebook Lead Ads data and turn it into more usable data. However, they’re the cheapest on the market today. Most of the company’s competitors start at $300 per month – which also shows you just how valuable a tool like this can be to high-volume Facebook PPC advertisers.
