How to Grow Your Business, Even When You’re on Vacation

Can you believe it’s summer already?

If you’re like many small business owners and marketers, you’ve been working hard all year to grow your business.

And now you’re looking forward to a well-deserved vacation.

Or maybe you — like 43 percent of small business owners — struggle to take time away from your business.  

If you’re worried that stepping away from your business could stunt your business’s growth, it’s time to look into some new tools to automate your marketing efforts.

Constant Contact has tools and integrations to make staying on top of customer relationships easy no matter where you are. 

If you’re wondering how to grow your business, even while you’re away, give these tools a try!

1. Autoresponder

Worried about following up with new leads and customers while you’re on vacation?  

With Constant Contact’s Autoresponder feature, you can create an automated welcome series to send to all new email subscribers.

Customize your welcome email, and schedule one or two follow-up messages to drive engagement and sales on an ongoing basis.  

You can also engage your existing customers by setting up automated Birthday or Anniversary emails.

2. Gazella Wifi

With your email marketing sending on autopilot, make sure you’re continuing to grow your email list even while you’re taking time off.

Using Gazella Wifi, your customers will be asked to provide their email address in order to access wifi at your business. The integration then automatically adds contacts to your Constant Contact account.

Gazella Wifi’s platform also gives you the ability to create a custom landing page that matches your brand or create a redirect so guests are driven to your website first.

Once you set up your wifi, you won’t have to worry about asking for email addresses in person.

3. MailMunch

Don’t forget to grow your email list online, as well.

MailMunch helps grow your list by converting website visitors into subscribers and customers. Their beautiful opt-in forms allow you to catch visitors before they leave.

With a variety of forms like Popups, Top Bar, and Scroll Box —  all of which are optimized for mobile devices and integrate with Constant Contact  — your website leads go directly into your contact list.

Looking for more tools to grow your business?

The more marketing tasks you successfully automate, the more comfortable you’ll be taking some much needed time off.

You’ll also free up some time to focus on the areas of your business that need your attention the most.
