How to Connect Group Collector with ClickFunnels

If you want approved Facebook group members to be automatically sent into ClickFunnels, you need to connect ClickFunnels 2.0 as an autoresponder inside Group Collector.

This integration allows you to capture Facebook group leads in real time, tag them (optional), and use them inside ClickFunnels for funnels, follow-ups, email automation, and CRM workflows without manual CSV imports.
