Segment export: Mailchimp
Learn from this article: |
Prerequisite
To export to Mailchimp. you need to have Mailchimp export set by the administrator.
Export to Mailchimp
1. Create a segment |
Create a segment of customers that you wish to export to Mailchimp (e.g. contacts from webinars you have already organized, to promote future webinars). |
2. Choose destination |
Go to the destination/parameters section, name the audience however you would like. In our example, we named it “Mailchimp export audience test”. Remember the name you choose, it will be useful in the next steps.
With the parameter, existing contacts in Mailchimp are tagged. If the name of the parameter is changed, the contacts would have another tag attached to it. So if the parameter was named "Audience A" and pushed to Mailchimp and later on another batch is pushed Mailchimp with the same name. The size of "Audience A" goes up. If it was named "Audience A" when it was pushed to Mailchimp the first time and then later on it was changed to "Audience B" and pushed out to Mailchimp, the overlapping contacts would have both "Audience A" & "Audience B" tagged to them.
