You can integrate your Retention.com account directly with Acoustic.
An integration between Retention.com and Acoustic does three things:
Automatically sends contacts acquired in your Retention.com account to Acoustic into a database of your choosing.
Automatically suppresses existing contacts in your Acoustic account.
Ability to set up custom filters to sync filters (ie, send leads from different domains to different lists or ESPs).
What you'll need
1. Your Client ID, Client Secret, Refresh Token, POD (used to create your login), FTP username, and FTP password. These credentials can only be obtained by the administrator of the organization/account. Within your Campaign Automation organization, go to Organization Settings.
2. Click to expand Application Account Access.
3. Select Add Application.
4. Enter a name and description, and click Add.
5. You will be shown your Client ID and Client Secret.
6. To associate a user to the application and create a Refresh Token, click Add Account Access.
7. Choose an Application and user Account from the drop-down, and click Add. After the token is created, it will be emailed to the user.
8. The FTP username and FTP password are the username and password you use to login to Acoustic.
9. You will also need to create a database in Acoustic where you want to sync your Retention.com contacts. This database must have the CSV fields attached to this email. (You can create the database from the CSV file.) Here's how that would look:
To get started
1. Click on Integrations from the left navigation panel in Retention.com. Then, click Available Integrations at the top and choose the Acoustic icon.
2. Paste your Client ID, Client Secret, Refresh Token, POD, FTP username, and FTP password. Click Connect.
3. Click Yes to upload your collected contacts. Pick a database to sync with from the drop-down menu. Next, choose whether you want to enable custom sync options.
If you check the box to enable custom sync options, that will display five options: filter by email domain, full or portion of a landing page URL, landing page domain, state, and referrer URL.
This feature allows you to filter your Retention.com contacts before you send them to your ESP. For example, you can send all contacts who hit different landing pages to separate lists. Or, send all of your California leads to one ESP and Texas leads to another.
Email domain: This field auto-fills/populates with email domains (ex. Gmail, Yahoo Mail, AOL, etc.) from your collected contacts.
Full or portion of a landing page URL: If you’ve put the script on several pages or the entire site, this field allows you to pull out contacts who have only hit Landing Page A or Landing Page B. This option does not auto-populate, so you will have to add in the exact URL.
Landing page domain: If you added script to both Retention.com and Robly.com, for example, the landing page domain would be either Retention.com or Robly.com. This field will auto-populate.
State: This filter allows you to pull out only contacts from one or more states.
Referrer URL: This is the URL the contact comes to your site from.
When you’re finished, click Next.
5. Enable the Acoustic integration. Once you enable the integration, your suppression and collection sync settings will apply and begin. Then, click Finish.
6. Once the integration is complete, you will see the integration date, API details, contact suppression, and the option to set/change the database it’s synced to. You can also Remove the integration from this page at the top.
