How Flodesk’s New Integrations Are Making My Business Run Like a Dream
Real talk: your email marketing platform should make running your business easier, not be a constant pain point because of a lack of features, integrations, and evolution.
Enter: Flodesk.
If you’ve been around me at all (and if you haven’t you’re about to find out!) then you know I’ve been swearing by Flodesk for email marketing since the early days of their beta phase. As a Flodesk partner, I swear by it to every client, collab partner, or new follower that will listen, and even wrote a previous post about why I think it’s the all around best email marketing platform for creatives.
I almost didn’t think Flodesk could get any better, but I kept wishing for a couple key integrations that would make running our business so much easier.
And, I can’t believe it, but Flodesk delivered on ALL OF THEM.
It’s like someone at Flodesk said, “What if we just made life stupid simple for entrepreneurs?” and then delivered exactly that. So now, I’m screaming from the rooftops again to tell you why I’m so obsessed and why, if you’re not already using Flodesk, it’s time to make email marketing easier on yourself!

3 Flodesk Integrations That Have Helped Make It The Best Email Marketing Tool Around
So like I said, I genuinely have been so happy with Flodesk, and didn’t think the tool itself could get any better. The only thing I wanted was a couple integrations with other tools we use, just to simplify our systems and workflows (and give me some of my sanity back in the process).
Flodesk absolutely delivered. They dropped the exact 3 integrations I was hoping for:
Thrivecart, Canva, and ManyChat.
So today I want to break down these new integrations, why we think they’re so important, and why, if you’re not already using Flodesk, now’s the time to switch!
A Quick Throwback: My Journey with Flodesk
Before I get into the integrations, let’s rewind for just a second.
When I first switched to Flodesk years ago, it was for two reasons:
Emails that actually look like me (aka bold design, pretty and organized, and super hyped)
Ease of use that didn’t make me want to cry, throw my laptop, or take an extended sabbatical
Flodesk gave me the gorgeous designs I wanted without needing a graphic design degree, plus workflows that actually made my business feel automated and personal. I built nurture sequences, launch funnels, custom event follow-ups, and fun little touch points that went out even when I was speaking on stage or living my best life at the beach.
If you want to see what I mean, check out my earlier posts:
Those go deep into the workflows, features, forms, and all the reasons Flodesk earned its permanent residency in my business.
But today? I’m talking about what’s new, and honestly, it’s next-level.
Why Integrations Matter (A Lot More Than We Pretend They Do)
Entrepreneurs love to romanticize “doing it all,” but let’s be real:
Most of our time gets wasted trying to get our tools to cooperate.
Copy-paste this. Export that. Download here. Upload there.
It’s like being the exhausted middle manager of your own tech stack.
When your tools sync seamlessly, everything becomes lighter, faster, cleaner, and way more fun. Your systems start feeling like a friendly ecosystem instead of a complicated collection of puzzle pieces you're responsible for fitting together manually.
That’s why these three integrations hit so hard for me. So let’s get into the big 3 integrations I’m talking about.
1. Thrivecart + Flodesk: A Match Made For Making Money
We’ve used Thrivecart for years and absolutely love it for selling all our offers, hosting their checkout pages, and building out our affiliate programs (which is huge when we run the Females on Fire Summit).
As much as we loved Thrivecart and Flodesk, it was a nightmare trying to get people from our checkouts and affiliate programs over to our email list.
We were drowning in zaps, in workarounds, and in hours of manually moving people over when things inevitably didn’t work like they perfectly should.
Now? Thrivecart and Flodesk just talk right to each other like actual adults in a happy, functioning relationships, and we’ve had ZERO issues.
Here’s why this integration matters:
Instant confirmations and deliveries (without the tech gremlins)
No more “I don’t know if it went through.” No “I didn’t get login info.” No “I bought xyz digital product and it’s been like 24 hours and I don’t have it.
Seamless upsell funnels
Someone buys one offer? They’re automatically tagged and guided to what makes the most sense for their next step.
No more duct-taping automations together
It’s clean. Simple. And oh so satisfying.
Here’s how we’re using it:
There are so many ways this has elevated our business. Here are just a couple of the perks:
Beautiful and branded confirmation emails
Immediate login information when someone buys a course/program or immediate delivery when someone purchases a product
Easy but subtle upsells that actually feel helpful to our customers
Immediate necessary instructions, links, and folders for affiliates as soon as they sign up
Instant access to start nurturing our customers and building even more trust and rapport with them
All automatically.
No broken zaps. No delays. No chaos.
Just the way Flodesk was always meant to function, now with purchase power included.
2. Canva + Flodesk: A Designer’s Dream (Even If You’re Not One)
If I had to choose two tools I spend way too much time in, they’re Flodesk and Canva.
I use Canva for quite literally everything design-wise - website graphics, social media posts, lead magnets, course workbooks, brand assets…the list just goes on. And of course I want my Flodesk emails to look just as beautifully designed.
So when they announced a Canva integration?
I may or may not have audibly squealed.
You can now send designs directly from Canva into Flodesk.
No more downloading. No more resizing. No more possible degradation in quality.
Straight into your email builder. Ready to drag, drop, and adjust.
Why the Canva integration changes everything:
Branded emails become even easier
You can keep all your visual assets consistent across platforms without juggling files.
Faster content creation
Batch create in Canva → push to Flodesk → schedule.
Better visuals = higher engagement
People love emails that feel polished, clean, and visually interesting. This makes it almost effortless.
How we’re using it:
We’ve started designing:
Header images
Section banners
Launch countdown visuals
Podcast guest graphics that move right over
A more heavily designed newsletter
…all in Canva, then pushing everything straight into Flodesk to use inside workflows and newsletters. It feels seamless. It feels fun. And honestly? It makes me want to send more emails.
When your emails look good, you feel good writing them, and your audience feels good opening them. A win for everyone.
3. ManyChat + Flodesk: The Conversion Combo You Didn’t Know You Needed
Now I’ll admit, this is the integration I’ve played with the least so far, but we already love using ManyChat for DM automation over on Instagram.
It’s is the easiest way to move people from “social follower” to “engaged lead,” and it’s so easy to deliver freebies, enter people in giveaways, send follow up reminders (which is so great for our events), or create more interactive experiences with our audience.
That’s why a seamless integration with Flodesk to move these people quickly from DMs to our email list is a no brainer for us.
What the integration with ManyChat does:
Anytime someone interacts with your ManyChat automation - downloads a freebie, enters a keyword, responds to a prompt - you can send their email directly into Flodesk:
With a specific tag
Into a specific segment
Triggering a specific workflow
No extra steps. No manual exporting. And again, no duct tape.
Why this is a big deal:
Social engagement now leads directly to nurture sequences
If someone comments “PITCH” on one of our reels, ManyChat sends them the link and adds them to the workflow for our free Pitch Kit inside Flodesk.
Way higher conversions
Most people don’t click links. But they will comment or DM a keyword. This captures them right where they already are.
Launches become smoother and more automated
You can run social-driven campaigns that immediately feed into email-powered funnels.
It’s such a powerful integration, and we’re really excited to dive deeper into using it and getting our workflows with it set up over the next few months.
Why These Integrations Matter for Your Business
If you're anything like me, you want:
Systems that work without babysitting
Tools that make your brand feel cohesive
Tech that actually supports your growth
More automation without losing your voice
A customer journey that feels intentional, warm, and easy
These integrations deliver all of that.
Flodesk has always been strong on design, simplicity, and workflows.
But now?
It’s a full-blown marketing ecosystem.
One that plays incredibly well with the tools entrepreneurs already love.
These integrations aren’t just “nice to have.” They’re growth tools.
They help me convert more of the right people, automate without feeling robotic, spend less time fixing tech and more time speaking, coaching, and creating, keep my brand consistent, and most importantly… they let my systems run in the background while I live my life.
This is what I want for every woman building something meaningful.
More ease. More clarity. More confidence in the backend of your business.
And if you’re ready to jump in, you can start your free trial and grab 25% off your first year of Flodesk using my link and start building systems that feel fun and effortless.
Because when your tools are working for you?
Everything else in your business gets lighter.
