Forget manual data entry and complex integrations; this addon provides a straightforward solution to automate your email list-building process. With this addon, every time a user submits a form on your site, their details are instantly and automatically sent to your chosen email marketing list. This ensures immediate follow-up and engagement, helping you nurture leads from the very first interaction. The plugin offers a user-friendly interface within the WPBakery editor, making it incredibly easy to configure and manage your connections without writing a single line of code.
Why This Is Important

FAQ
Which email marketing services are compatible with this addon?
The plugin supports a wide range of popular autoresponders. This includes major platforms like Mailchimp, GetResponse, AWeber, Campaign Monitor, ActiveCampaign, Constant Contact, and many others. The integration is typically done via an API key, which you can easily find in your email marketing service's account settings.
Can I use this addon with forms I've already created in WPBakery?
This addon works by providing a specific WPBakery element designed to handle autoresponder integration. While it won't directly convert a standard WPBakery form, it's very easy to replace your existing form with the addon's element. You can replicate your fields and design, then connect it to your autoresponder in just a few clicks.
Does this plugin support custom fields beyond name and email?
Yes, absolutely. One of the key features is the ability to map custom fields. You can create fields in your form for things like phone number, company, city, or specific user interests. Then, you can easily map these form fields to the corresponding custom fields (or merge tags) in your email marketing platform's audience settings.
Is the plugin difficult to set up for a non-technical user?
No, the plugin is designed to be user-friendly. The entire setup process is done through the visual interface of WPBakery Page Builder. You don't need to write any code. The main steps involve adding the autoresponder element to your page, selecting your email service from a dropdown, and pasting your API key. The rest is intuitive form building.
