Constant Contact Acquires NutshellMail

NutshellMail, one of the early participants in the fbFund, has been acquired by Constant Contact, the email marketing provider. The acquisition aims at providing small organizations with a tool “to monitor and engage with social networks right from their email inbox”. It’s a pretty obvious acquisition opportunity as NutshellMail is one of the only email marketing companies in the social media space.

Constant Contact also announced plans to “add more social media marketing tools in the coming months” to NutshellMail which will help small businesses.
