  • How to Add The “Join My List” App to your Facebook Fan Page Posted Tuesday, December 22, 2009 Bridgette Brown 0 Comments

    Constant Contact has built a “Join My List” application for Facebook to help you sign up your Facebook fan page visitors to your Constant Contact mailing lists. Here’s a quick tutorial explaining how to set up the application for your own fan pages:

    1.  The first thing to do is ensure that you’re logged in to Facebook as an administrator of the Fan Pages you’d like to add our app to. To do that, just head to facebook.com, and make sure you’re logged in as the right user.

    2. With that all set, click here to select the Fan Pages to which you’d like to add our app.

    3.  You’re almost there! Next, head to the Fan Page you’ve added our app to. Look on the left-side column on this page, and you’ll see a new “Join My List” entry. Click on that entry.

    4.  The app will appear, but it won’t yet be set up. Click on the “Application Settings” link at the bottom of the page to continue with setting up the app.

    5.  A permission prompt will appear. The Facebook Join My List app requires permission from you in order to be able to install to your fan page. Please click the “Install” button, and then “Allow”.

    6.  Next, enter your Constant Contact username and password, then click the “Log In” button.

    7. Enter the custom text or images you’d like to display, if any, on your Join My List app page, and then select the default contact list for new signups under the “Lists” category. Also be sure to check off any additional contact lists that you would like displayed. When finished, click the “Save Settings” button.

    8.  Your settings will be saved, and your app will now be active on your Fan Page. You’re done!

    Note: If you are experiencing issues with the application, please contact the Constant Contact support team here.
