Facebook Messenger is a messaging app and platform that lets users send messages and exchange photos, videos, stickers, audio, and other files. The service works exclusively via the internet, so there are no cellular charges to worry about. And you don't necessarily need a Facebook account to use Messenger, since you can sign up with just a phone number. Messenger also allows you to send money, share your location (from a mobile device), and play games over the Facebook platform. Plus, it functions as a free voice and video call service: Up to 50 users can participate in group calls, and users can activate Facebook's filters while in a call. Recently, more and more businesses are using Messenger as a lead generation platform.

And now Messenger connects with Zapier, making it easier than ever to automate your lead gen workflows. Connect Zapier to 1,500+ other apps: Zapier can automatically trigger workflows in other apps whenever a new message is sent to a page in Messenger. Or you can send a message to a user from a page in Messenger whenever trigger events happen in the other apps you use most.

Here are just a few ways to make the most of Zapier's Facebook Messenger integrations:

  • Connect Messenger to your team communication app to automatically receive notifications whenever you have new Facebook Page messages.
  • Automatically record new messages in your database or spreadsheet app.
  • Connect Messenger to your task management software or to-do list app to automatically create new tasks to follow up on.
