Add clicked cold-email contacts to audience and update CRM

Automatically detect new campaign clicks across ActiveCampaign and retargeting systems. Add clicked cold-email contacts to custom audiences and update CRM lead engagement—so you can spot intent fast, follow up quickly, and avoid manual list building.

How this automation adds clicked contacts to retargeting audiences

When cold-email clicks go unmanaged, outreach timing slips and retargeting lists stay incomplete. This automation monitors ActiveCampaign clicks and posts Slack alerts and then finds and updates leads in Close and adds the contact to Facebook Custom Audiences—so your team can retarget on intent.
