Prerequisites


  • You can find the audience sync link under the promo name and in the promo settings dropdown.  It will only exist on promos that have a lead capture form on them.
  • This feature does not require specific Email Service Provider (ESP) integration.
  • Ad accounts have eligibility criteria to use customer lists as audiences:
    • Google: $50K lifetime spend, account live at least 90 days, no policy violations
    • Facebook: accepted terms and conditions, ad account is in a business manager
  • Audience Sync does not auto-apply synched audiences to campaigns, ad groups, or ad sets. You will need to log into your ad account to apply them. 
  • Google audiences can be used for Youtube, search, display, and shopping ad targeting. 
  • Facebook audiences can be used for Facebook and Instagram ads.
