I have created a 3-page newsletter in Canva. Can I use that to send as a campaign and email it to my contacts in Constant Contact?

Hello!

Short answer is YES, you can download your Canva designs directly into your Constant Contact account and send it as an email to your subscribers. 

 

However, you can only download one page at a time, and in image format (png or jpg) rather than in pdf format.

 

We generally don't recommend sending an image of your content for multiple reasons:

1.  You can only insert one link per image.

2. If readers have images turned off in their email service, they will miss the entire message

3. Images can be large files which can get stuck on servers or even trigger SPAM filters

 

Instead, we encourage email marketers to use Constant Contact's robust design features like individual text fields, images, button links, etc. You can still create amazing Canva designs and import them into your campaigns, but as individual components to avoid the pitfalls mentioned above.

 

Let me know if you have any more questions about your Constant Contact + Canva integration!
