Note: The ConvertKit integration is only available to users on a GrowSurf paid plan.
Step 1: In Campaign Editor > 4. Options > Integrations, open the ConvertKit integration card and enter your ConvertKit API secret (click here to get your ConvertKit API secret).
IMPORTANT: Because the GrowSurf data sync to ConvertKit only occurs after you have connected with the integration, it is imperative to connect with the integration BEFORE importing participants. Click here to see remedy options if you have already imported participants into your campaign but would like to sync their GrowSurf data to ConvertKit.
Step 2: Once connected, choose the ConvertKit tag that you want to automatically sync to. GrowSurf will add/update your ConvertKit subscribers every time a new participant is added or referred to your referral campaign.
Step 3: Save changes. You should now see a screen that looks like the one below:

*GRSF Referral Status can be the following: CREDIT_PENDING
(This participant must still trigger a referral for their referrer to receive referral credit), CREDIT_AWARDED
(This participant triggered a referral and their referrer received referral credit), CREDIT_EXPIRED
(This participant did not trigger the referral credit within the referral credit expiration window so their referrer did not receive referral credit).
You can use these subscriber fields in your ConvertKit email templates. Whether you launch a new marketing campaign or have an automated drip campaign going on, make sure to always include {{ subscriber.grsf_share_url }}
in your emails to provoke your subscribers to make referrals!
