Mailchimp

Marketing

Mailchimp is one of the apps you can connect in LoopSuite. You pick the account while hiring, and an employee can reach nothing you didn't tick. Treat a new connection as new: run one job and read the result before you leave it running to a schedule.

Whatever you use for marketing

The repetitive job still has an owner.

What it holds

What Mailchimp has that a job needs.

Mailchimp holds your audience, your campaigns, and who opened and clicked them.

How it works

Connect it, or hand over the numbers.

  1. Connect Mailchimp when you hire.You pick the account it is allowed, and it can reach nothing else. The apps an employee may use are part of its setup, so you can change your mind later.
  2. Or work from an export instead.Mailchimp exports your audience and your campaign reports as CSV.
  3. Hire the employee for the job.For this kind of work that is Social Post Publisher. One employee, one job, and it lands paused until you turn it on.
  4. It works from that, not from a guess.Your numbers, your wording, your rules. If what it is reading looks stale, it says so rather than acting on old information.

What it will not do

  • Reach any account in Mailchimp you didn't tick when you hired it
  • Send a campaign, or change your audience
  • Work from information it cannot tell is current
Who this is for

Worth it for whom, honestly.

Small businesses with a list they built once and email twice a year. That list is usually the most valuable and least used asset the business owns.

People searching for Mailchimp automation and Mailchimp for small business land here too. It is one honest answer about Mailchimp, so it is one page rather than three near-identical ones.

Questions

Mailchimp, straight answers.

What does an employee actually need from Mailchimp?

The records the job runs on — your prices, or the list of what is open and when it last moved. It works from what you point it at, and asks you when a line is missing rather than inventing one.

Do I have to move my business into LoopSuite?

No. There is no migration. Your records stay where they are, and what moves is the repetitive job on top of them.

I have a list and never email it. What is the first useful thing?

Not a campaign. Review & Referral Requests asked of the last thirty happy customers will do more than a newsletter.

Can it send the campaign for me?

No. Sending a marketing campaign is not one of the jobs on the roster. The employees write to one customer at a time, about their job.

What is the first marketing job worth handing over?

Usually not a campaign. Review & Referral Requests, asked of customers whose jobs just finished, tends to produce more than a newsletter to a cold list.

Does connecting Mailchimp turn anything on?

No. Connecting an app does not start a job. A new employee lands paused and does nothing until you turn it on.

Start with the job that costs you most.

One employee. One job. It lands paused until you turn it on.
