Hello! Is it possible to see an actual visual of contact growth over time -- ie a line graph that shows contacts added over a period of 12 months, broken out by month or week? I seem to remember the old constant contact had that function -- which is super valuable to be able to show colleagues how we're performing. Just showing a bar graph that says "you added 4k contacts this year/in the past 90 days" is not helpful at all, nor is it helpful to receive notifications of unsubscribes/subscribes every day or week -- I want to know and see a trend of how we're doing over time. I haven't been able to find anything like this in Reports. If I am missing something, let me know. Otherwise I will be over here, tracking everything every month manually, on paper.

Hello @bethK3 ,

 

There's no inherent line graph functionality available in the system for contact growth reporting. I'd recommend using a program built for graph creation, if you're wanting to make custom graphs based on the reporting available in your account

I'm not sure what you mean by "I'd recommend using a program built for graph creation". Do you mean Canva? Because that is what I'm going to do without having this capability in the program. I will manually look things up, write them down on a piece of paper and then create a graph in another program to be able to report out to colleagues/supervisor. It would be awesome to have this capability in Constant Contact. So many of us are benchmarked on growth of contacts over time. If I'd known I'd need to track it myself manually, I don't know if I would have chosen CC when we switched

Is there plans to implement this capability? It's kind of essential specially when my clients are asking me about these numbers over time.
