IMPORTANT: Because the GrowSurf data sync to Constant Contact only occurs after you have connected with the integration, it is imperative to connect with the integration BEFORE importing participants.

You can use these contact fields in your Constant Contact email templates. Whether you launch a new marketing campaign or have an automated drip campaign going on, make sure to always include
[[custom.growsurf_share_url]] in your emails to provoke your contacts to make referrals!Troubleshooting Tips
- If the new participant isn't being added to Constant Contact, or if they are being added but their unique referral link isn't being synced to Constant Contact:
- Activity logs will denote if a participant was added to Constant Contact or if they failed to be added. (In the case of failure, GrowSurf will re-attempt to add them for 7 days).
